RICHARD HUTCHINS Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Simple question from a simple person. Suddenly my output and input details have disappeared from my tracks. They were there under "clips" but now they aren't. I can see them individually on the side panel ( not the right term I know). And now I arm for recording but no signal. I've done something but what? I strongly suspect the Cakewalk Elves who live inside this DAW and can be very meanto novice users. Its the only reason I get so many problems, it cant be my ignorance can it? (Don't answer that one ?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there aren’t that many elves found outside Middle-earth anymore, but one of these DAW elves actually whispered to me that she was scared because you have a user name spelled with all capital letters, indicating shouting, and because of that this timid creature was afraid to help you. So they are certainly not evil, just restrained. Anyway, in this particular case you have to change the Track Control Layout (widget) filter located directly below the Track View menu from FX to either All or I/O in order to see the Input/Output drop-downs for each Track.

RICHARD HUTCHINS Posted March 23, 2021 Author Share Posted March 23, 2021 Ha ha, Thanks! I'll ask Gandalf how to change my user name to LOWER CASE! seriously though, that worked a treat, really not sure how I messed this setting up, given the fact I didnt even know that widget was there!

John Vere Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) I got so pea-d at that stupid setting that I went in to the Track Control Options using " Select All Controls" checked everything for all the settings.. No more missing features when I open a old project or basic template. They all look the same now And then my meters went horizontal on me and that took a few minutes to find that setting! None of this seems to be part of Workspaces. Edited March 24, 2021 by John Vere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICHARD HUTCHINS Posted March 24, 2021 Author Share Posted March 24, 2021 Thats interesting John. For me where I am technically at the moment there would be lots of controls I don't use, ( not least because I dont understand them!) but as I progress hopefully this fix will make sense.
