Hardware Output Left Fader Reverts on Stop

[scoco]

Today, out of the blue, I noticed that Sonar's output level to my MOTU 8Pre ES was lower on left. In the MOTU's interface I could see the difference on the meter coming "from computer." But in Sonar the levels were equal on my master bus. I usually hide the hardware outputs in my console view. It wasn't until I looked at my hardware outputs that I saw that the left fader was set at -8.7. I right-clicked on the fader and saw a line that said "Revert to -8.7." But I can find no way to remove that setting. So, with any Sonar project loaded, I can set the fader to 0 before I hit play but it jumps back to -8.7 when I stop playback.

How can I eliminate that "Revert to -8.7" setting or otherwise fix this problem?

Never seen that before, though that covers a lot of ground. Try this: Set the faders to 0.0 (or wherever you want them), right-click the one that changes, or each one, and select Value>Set Snap-To = Current. This seems to work for me. There is more about this function on page 1491 of the reference manual.  The unwanted change in fader position may be caused by the Set End = Current command, on page 1491 of the manual.

"Set Snap-to = Current
This command, which you find by right-clicking a fader or knob in the Console or Track views, sets the snap-to position of that fader
or knob to its current value. When you double-click a fader or knob, it jumps to its snap-to position.
For more information about the Console view, see “Preparing to mix” on page 912."

Also, make sure those faders are not part of a custom group.

All that means is you could, if you wish, revert the value of the fader to its previous setting, which in this case is -8.7

• Double click it to set to 0.0
• Click the padlock icon to lock L + R together

If you send the project file I can take a look at why it's resetting.
