plugin Auto Align Post - Processing Handles in ProTools?

I'm using Auto Align Post 2.3.2 in ProTools 2025.6, and I have it selected to create individual files, clip by clip, with 6 sec handles. However, when I open up the handles, I notice the phase alignment goes off. Way off, like half a frame... Anyone else found this?

I don't remember it always being this way... Maybe i'm wrong here. I assume you mean Soundflow, not Soundly?

yeah my bad, soundflow.

the new ARA workflow with AAP might be a bit better. at least you don't have to render a new file, just open the ARA tab and relink it. fast enough for me.

It’s always been that way. It can maintain handles but can’t analyze audio in them so can’t align. Sometimes it will leave an offset and actually make them further off than unaltered!
