pepe44 Report post Posted January 8 Hi everyone, i´ve been using Samplitude Pro x 5 for 2 days now. Great DAW. Im having a hard time trying to figure out how to use sonaworks reference on the Monitoring section without causing problems on my track solo´s. Lets assume i have 10 tracks: 1-5 Drums OUT to Bus 1 (no AUX send, bottom track routing direct to bus 1) 6-8 - Some Samples OUT to Bus 2 (no AUX send, bottom track routing direct to bus 2) 9-10 Vocals OUT to BUS 3 (no AUX send, bottom track routing direct to bus 3) Bus 1+2+3 GO to BUS 4 (my submix) - Out to Stereo Master My master fader (red faders) is set to no output In the monitoring section i have setup my output to be my default 1+2 Audio interface physical out and the input to be the Stereo Master everytime i try to solo an individual track i get more volume from that track and the routing is ignored , sounds like the track solo is not passin on the bus and the monitoring section. Im i doing something wrong ? Any preference for the Solo routing ? I checked the manual, web search, looked in the project and system preferences, could not get it done. Hope someone can help. Thanks in advanced Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What the reason for setting the Master to no output? If read you correct you want the Monitor & Solo on the same outputs? Just send your submix to Master and set it to 1+2 Audio interface physical out, and set the Monitor section input to Stereo Master, output to the same 1+2 Audio interface physical out. The plugins in the Monitor section will be Post Stereo Master so the Master mixdown/rendering will not be affected by the plugin in the Monitor section. Just tested with Sonarworks Reference and it works fine here just as any other plugin, latest Pro X5 build 208. Best, Thomas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pepe44 Report post Posted January 10 The problem comes when you try to solo one track in the session that is being sent to a bus ( set levels for the buses to another level different then unity). The solo ignores the routing .

pepe44 Report post Posted January 10 Take this image has an example, watch the routing im doing there. When i solo track 1 ( which is going to a bus with a reverb inserted) the solo ignores the reverb. Same doesn't happen when i solo the buses, volume and reverb is still present. not for track .

Ok, I get it, you are absolutely right, it does not work correctly. I was focused on the master routing ... Thomas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pepe44 Report post Posted January 10 Yes. Its a huge problem. Impossible to make professional work like this. Makes me think, from a new user stand point, how is it possible no one have noticed before ? im using samplitude for 2 days now and first thing i do when working on a new DAW is testing all the routing, preferences etc, before i dig into working full time. Is this a bug from X5 version or is it something that comes from the very beginning ? i would like to know if someone with X4 could make this test.

pepe44 Report post Posted January 10 OK, its certainly a problem with the monitoring. If you dont use the monitoring everything works has expected. Lets hope the team at Magix can make a patch or update fixing this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
georgob Report post Posted January 10 Using no monitoring provides the destructive Solo mode. Pfl And non destructive solo is only available when using the solo bus. This is known to samdev and hopefully will be changed. I will bring it to their attention again. Georg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Monitor section is a new function introduced with Pro X5, in erlier version the was only the Monitor function in the Mixer available which works fine.
