Midi volume monitoring

[ChrisHedge]

Strange new issue with PT12.

I can't monitor volume changes live on a midi track. Am I missing something? Playback automation is fine. I opened my PT10 as a test, same prefs, no issues.

In PT12, I created a simple Xpand!2 Instrument track and a separate midi track routed to it. I can control (and monitor) the audio out of the instrument track, but not the volume of the midi track.

I'm controlling with a Command8, but even grabbing the fader in the mix window has the same issue. That means that I can't roll a mix, because I'm not monitoring the midi volume changes while playing or in writing automation.

I've been using ProTools for decades, so I'm sure I'm missing something pretty stupid... help!

same here: PT 12.2 is not letting MIDI volume / pan through, automation only.
pretty annoying.
Is there a preference setting I missed?
