Insertion follows playback button 10 times the size?

Would anyone else find a plugin, like a big floating window useful? I sometimes think it's on when it's off and off when it's on. Swearing ensues.

I wonder if the AAX protocol would support such...

Re: Speaker mapping wrong or Gremlin attack?

Cracked it!

On the S6, on the monitoring page, 'folddown' was set to mono. How it affects the audio in the room is baffling to me.

Re: Have I lost my place?

Original time stamp in spot mode!

Thanks. Got it.

It turns out I hadn't jogged it by mistake this time. The kids were quite young and out of time. Not loving this edit!

OK I figured it out.

When I played back the backing track for the kids to sing along to, it was at full level.

Although the mic channel's weren't clipping during recording, the overall mixer in...
