Export audio slow (drag and drop) under certain conditions

I'm playing with audio drag and drop between Maschine 3.2 and DAW (Studio One 7.2.1), both apps using same sample rate and BPM.

Drag and drop worked great with Kontakt tracks, converted to audio fine and sync'd up OK.

Then I used a track that uses the sampler, when it arrived in the DAW it ended up being too slow and out of sync.

I managed to fix this by changing the pattern length (in the Maschine app), from 7.0.0 to 8.0.0 and drag and drop again.

I'm wondering why I need to do this?

Thanks....

    Hard to say.. Maschine doesn't do much other than export, maybe Studio One's length auto-detection thinks 7 bars are 8, thus slowing it down / stretching to fit? Ussually DAW's have an option to manually set lenght when it gets it wrong. (I dont own S1 to verify the options)

    I'd drag and drop somewhere else, like a folder, and inspect the wav.

    Spot on thanks.

    I dragged and dropped on desktop, sounded fine in audacity, then I dragged that same file into Studio One, if was off, there was a file tempo setting which I corrected and all was fine, so I guess I'll ask this question on Studio One forum.

    EDIT - interestingly Audacity correctly detects tempo, but Studio One does not, I'll continue troubleshooting so far it doesn't look like a Maschine issue.
