channel volume keeps re-setting itself! Automation not on!

Recommended Posts

OK, i downloaded a midi song off the internet. I change the volume on some tracks, but after hitting play, it goes straight back to the original volume. There is no automation on and i have deleted the automation for all tracks several times just to make sure. This is frustrating, it should let me change the volumes on an individual channel without resetting itself.

 

Anyone have any suggestions? Josh

I've got Logic Pro 7 and this happens to me quite often and it's really annoying!! It seems to reset the volumes of all my channels in my mix and only way to stop it is either by restarting Logic or even my iMac.

I'd be really pleased as well if anyone knows how to permanently fix this!

ok, it hasn't sorted itself out.

 

I had the track selected and solo'd using the 'S' key. This way i was able to change the volume and have it stay there.

 

The minute i take solo off and press play, it goes straight back to the original volume setting.

 

Anyone have a clue? Help will be really appreciated as deadlines are soon and i need to mix this project.

 

thanks in advance!!

Hi

 

Not really sure what it could be but at least for now so you can meet your deadline I'd just put a gain plugin on your strip and adjust from there. Or just send it off to an aux and use that track to adjust the volume of your midi track.

Usually once the pressure of a deadline is over you can sit down and more clearly analyze the problem. At least that is what I find. :lol:

 

Have a good one. :D

Select your midi track and then open the event editor (key command - "toggle event editor") where you can see what's at the head of the track. If you see a line near the beginning of the list in the event editor that has control 7 info on it (volume), delete it. Likewise Control 10, if you want to have any choice in the panning.

 

St3phani3, you may be accidentally hitting the key command for "Toggle (mute) audio tracks". Look it up in your key commands list and see what's assigned to it.

I had this issue where a single 2 bar midi region I recorded and copied

over 20 or so bars,the volume fader kept resetting. It was driving me

nuts . I nailed it down to a single verticle stripe that copied on every region

and upon opening it in the piano roll editor, I clicked at the bottom

to find that midi controller data from my K2000 was recorded by accident

when my modulation wheel was left in a forward position. This same

single midi event was recorded across every region. I went in, deleted

the copies,wiped the controller data and all was forgiven.
