Work around but not Solved - Problem report (#724283)

Problem Report (#724283). 

Figured it out, kind of. Ok, for me, it was a combination of GW MixCentric, AR, TG Mastering and IMPusher in the bus area.  It took a LONG time to figure this out. Thanks to Bitfilpper for suggesting plugins in the bus area might be the problem. I don't know what happened. After mixing all night as usual, LOL, I opened the file the next day and there was a pop, then no sound. All I had to do is to was to delete the right plugins and put them back in. Simple enough, but there were 69 tracks with 96 plugins on them, including the bus effects. It took a bunch of time to figure out which it was.  

Ok, but what caused this to happen to this song to begin with. It was playing just fine the night before?

Some plugins internal state must have gone bad and got saved. By deleting and reinserting it probably reset whatever was bad.

I wish there was a way to locate these when it happens. 

Thanks

There isn't unless the plugin notifies you via its UI. We could try and detect denormals coming out of plugins and indicate it in the effects window but that may not necessarily catch all cases.
