Cobus Prinsloo Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 (edited) This is an enigma. I have a group containing 3x vocal tracks and soloed the first track (the lead vocal). But, for some reason, the two harmony tracks still play along, no matter what I try. I even Muted the other two, but they still play! The only way to kill their playback is to literally delete them. Can someone please propose a theory that might explain this phenomenon? Edited December 4 by Cobus Prinsloo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 @Cobus Prinsloo do they feed a common buss? Do they feed a common FX buss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobus Prinsloo Posted December 4 Author Share Posted December 4 57 minutes ago, Wookiee said: Do they feed a common FX buss? Yes -- the all feed into an Aux bus with Reverb. Aah, so this is the culprit, then! When I mute this bus, Solo mode functions properly for each track. Does this mean that I'll have to mute that bus every time I need to solo any of these tracks, or is there a better way around the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 @Cobus Prinsloo when you solo a track you will still hear anything sharing the same buss as the buss is part of the chain. There are also different Solo modes. Solo, a mode that reduces the volume of all the tracks by a predetermined dB amount. I tried to search the reference guide, for a page fir you, but it was not playing nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Baay Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 (edited) @Cobus Prinsloo Looks like those tracks probably all have Prefader Sends to 'aux reverb'. If you don't have LinkPFSendMute=True set in Preferences > Configuration File (i.e LinkPFSendMute=1 in AUD.INI), those sends will remain active when another track is soloed. Depending on what's on that Aux, you could continue to hear those tracks more or less clearly when the one is soloed.

Cobus Prinsloo Posted December 5 Author Share Posted December 5 Oh, ok then, thank you. I thought Sonar might have a few extras not covered in the Cakewalk documentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rewrite is in hand but at this moment that basically CbB & Sonar are so close as not to be different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
