CW changing fader and pan settings on XR18 mixer

[Kenneth Doerbecker]

I'm playing back recorded tracks through my XR18 mixer connected via USB 2.0.

When I hit stop or pause, the mixer for channel 2 on the XR18 goes to 0. Also the pan control goes hard left. This happens every time. I'm not even using track 2 o n the mixer. This does not happen when I use my old copy of Sonar x1.

Maybe try un-checking the "zero controllers when play stops" in preferences screen - sounds like CbB is sending a 0 to a midi CC that controls channel 2 on the mixer?

Thanks for your input. Sounded right, but that ended up not being the problem. I had an incompatibility between my driver bit depth settings and my recorded bit depth default settings. Once I corrected that this strange behavior stopped. And yes, I do believe I am in over my head.

Thanks again

I have never left there....And, with my being nearly 7 feet tall (2.05 meters), being in over my head is usually fairly daunting.  That is one reason I value these forums (and the older Sonar ones) so much.  I have learned COUNTLESS little tricks and fixes over the decades, and that really motivates me to try to help others when they post issues .
