Q: Sending clips from FCP to Soundtrack Pro shortens clips. Help!

I'm editing a video of nearly two hours. When I send an entire audio track to Soundtrack Pro it bogs the computer down badly, so I tried breaking it up into shorter clips and sending just the referenced media. That works fine for the first clip in each track. I can remove noise, etc, and it makes the round trip back to FCP.

 

The problem comes when I try to send a second clip from the same track. It dramatically shortens the clip before sending it to STP (see image).Screen shot 2013-07-21 at 5.06.31 PM.png

I've tried setting different in and out handles, skipping several clips and doing one further down the timeline (that just gives me an error message: "General Error"). Here are the settings I've been using when sending from FCP:

Does anyone have any suggestions? I would GREATLY appreciate any help you could provide.

 

Thanks!
