lingtalfi Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Hi, when I create a new audio track, the fader is at -24db instead of 0db, as it used to be before, if I remember correctly. I don't know what I did wrong but since a certain point in time, logic dimmed all my new audio tracks. I didn't find a setting in the preferences to configure that, am I missing something? Can this be fixed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 What Logic version is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lingtalfi Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 It's 10.5.1, but I believe I had the same problem in 10.4. It's not a big problem, just alt+clicking the fader solves it, but for the sake of having everything working perfectly... It might be a bug?

Eriksimon Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Could be a control surface or MIDI volume fader sending volume messages? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lingtalfi Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 Thanks for the suggestion. I just made a quick test, unplugging all my physical inputs and I still have the problem. I also checked that there was nothing suspicious/unusual in the environment (and there wasn't). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lingtalfi Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 However, I found out that it happened only if the "Record Enable" checkbox is ticked in the new audio track dialog. So now I leave it unchecked and I don't have the problem anymore. That didn't solve the problem, but at least I can avoid it Maybe it's my "sound card" that tells logic to duck the audio fader?

Eriksimon Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Yep, I believe that is a safeguard against feedback bursting if you have your monitors on and software monitoring enganged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakobP Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Yep, I believe that is a safeguard against feedback bursting if you have your monitors on and software monitoring enganged. +1 The audio preference "Independent monitoring level for record enabled channel strips" could also be in play here...

lingtalfi Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 I did the same tests with the "Input Monitoring" checkbox that appears in the "new audio track" dialog: it also needs to be unchecked, otherwise the ducking still happens. I did not see any difference with the "Independent monitoring level for record enabled channel strips" setting on and off though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
