Distortion in the beginning of a song

[Merkurius]

Hi,

I'm a FL Studio user for many many years, and back in the days, there was often some problems in the very beginning of an exported song when this song was starting at the beginning of the playlist.

When I say "problems", I'm talking about some kind of distortion or unwanted artifact of about 1 millisecond or so at the very beginning of the song. That was not major, but still noticeable, and sometime kinda damaging the attack on the very first kick of a song, for example. Not audible in FL Studio, just when exporting. I read somewhere in this forum that I may be caused by having automation clips in the very begining of the playlist.

So, back in the days, some producers simply started their song in the playlist after 16 beats to avoid this problem.

My question here... since I used this "trick" for like 15 years, is this problem still happening in FL Studio? Was it fixed over the years in the recent versions?

Thank you very much. I don't use the forum often, I hope this topic is all right.

I still notice this from time to time - usually...
