Topic: seek vs. goto (unexpected behavior)

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hi there!
It's my very first post, so please be gentle ;)

As I tried playing around with some small scripts I found this:

goto_cue 1 & seek -16
works as expected...now we add a new task to the list
goto_cue 1 & seek -16 & set_cue 3
but this sets cue 3 right at the position of cue 1 :-O
more interesting: the actual position in the rhythm IS AT 16 bars left of cue_1

instead this works as expected, but what's the difference?:
goto_cue 1 & goto -16 & set_cue 3 :-D

Seek is more for previewing, like old vhs tapes when you could play fastforward and still sort of see the picture
goto is like pressing stop and fastforward
