Default Inconsistent song previews

Making a file atm, and when I set the preview, it's about 6 measures early. I moved the preview area 6 measures ahead in DDReam to compensate, but it didn't change it at all. I then changed the preview area to a completely different part of the song, and it's still early.

This has happened before on multiple files I've made, but none of them have been this severe.

Multiple times. Deleting cache and disabling fast load doesn't change anything either. Sucks because the areas where the preview starts is right after 2 measures of silence, and that's included with the areas before it too.

This happens to me, too. I just work around it and pick something close or in a different area of the song.

read pls

on topic, maybe it has something to do with how long your preview is like deftea said? if it's not that, try remaking the file altogether with the steps copy/pasted over

Changing audio files fixed it for me. I had a friend send me official (legal) audio files for the songs in question and the preview is at the correct timing now.
