Input echo: remove auto through

[Leander]

Hi!

I accidentally hit a keyboard key and now my bass channel has the blue auto through. I can only switch between on and auto through, but not off like the other channels. How can I do that again?

It to me is sort of unexpected behaviour but when it happens it tells me I have that track open in the PRV.

You'll always get this behaviour if "Always Echo Current MIDI Track" is checked:

Thanks! What does echo do?

"Input Echo" is the monitoring enable on each track. It lets you hear whatever the input is set to for that track. The default option for MIDI tracks is to "Always Echo Current MIDI Track" which basically means whatever MIDI/Synth track you select, is the one you hear when triggering via your controller. Turning that "Always Echo" option to OFF means that you won't hear anything from your MIDI input until you explicitly turn the Input Echo on for any track.
