Default Sole & Mute buttons

Why is that all of a suddent PT will only play back tracks on which I've clicked the Solo button? It didn't used to do this & I can't understand why....

Thank you.

Check to make sure all of your tracks are currently visible, and that none of them are already set to solo mode. If a track was hidden and it was in solo mode it would cause this behavior.

Default Re: Sole & Mute buttons

Hi Sbag,
Ok this is the situation:
I have about 15 tracks that I've recorded for the song I'm working on. They're all showing in the mix window and when I play back I can see there is a signal showing.

As for audio, I can only make each individual track play back simultaneously with the other tracks If I've enabled the Solo button on each track.
The mute button is not enabled so why do I need to enable to the solo button on each of the 15 tracks just to listen back to everthing simultaneously? Previously all tracks that were showing would just play back when I clicked the play button. If I enabled the solo button on a particular track PT would single out that track & play it individually.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Kon.
