Track properties in Arrange not updating in Mixer

Jan 3rd, 2012, 06:31

This has suddenly happened to most of my projects, perhaps after the last update. I made a quick video from my iphone to better explain it: [url]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4983817/Video%20Jan%2003%2C%209%2023%2042%20AM.mov[/url] If I uncheck mute in the Mixer window and check mute in the Arrange, or vice versa, they still won't update. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi dnizzle, This is because there are two levels of mute/solo mode in Logic. You can have independent Mixer and Arrange Track mute/solo or linked. The former can be useful if, for example, you have 5 tracks for the same software instrument channel strip. You can then have different MIDI regions on each track... mute all but one of the tracks and still hear the MIDI region on one of those tracks... but if you mute the Channel strip then all those tracks will be muted... or in this case not ;-) Anyway, you can find much more info about this in the Logic 101 tutorial: [url]http://www.macprovideo.com/tutorial/logic9101[/url] Also, you can change this global setting here: Logic Pro > Preferences > Audio [General] Track Mute/Solo: Fast (Remote channel strips) - means the channel strip and track is linked OR CPU-Saving (slow response) - what you're currently set to. Hope that helps Rounik

Thank you! I know what happened, I was going through the Latency Toolbox tutorials and noticed Rice's setup and changed mine to match his hoping it would make me more awesome. :)

And it does!! (...make you more awesome that is). There's lots of ways to work in Logic. So, knowing how to use mute/solo modes independent of, or connected to, channel strips is very cool :)
