Synfire can open multiple arrangements and libraries at the same time, which may share the same devices on the global rack.

I was aware of opening multiple arrangements for the purpose of container copy/paste, but until now had never really sought out the playback capabilities inherent here.

The playback capabilities are actually very nice.  You can click on the playhead, or dbl-click in the timeline, alternatively between two (or more) arrangements and the results is a continuous sonic performance, a mash-up that is created in realtime.  I like it!

Here is where the feature request comes in ...

Consider how snippets work - they sync to barlines and thus change seamlessly (the prior one finishing, and the new one starting exactly at the close of the current measure).  

Unf. this does not appear to be the case when clicking back-and-forth between arrangements.  

It would be so cool if clicking back-and-forth between arrangements could result in a barline-aligned performance!

Perhaps possible for the future?    Impossible?    

Can't know if I don't ask!    Thanks.

Unfortunately that's not possible. There are significant delays switching between arrangements.
