Send slots in mixer show only the output bar

[[email protected]]

Most of the time when I reopen a session, many if not all of the send slots show only the output bar. The volume, pan, mute, and pre/post controls are missing.

The only fix seems to be turning expanded sends off for the offending sends and then turning it back on. Usually, I just go to View>Expended Sends>None, then View>Expanded Sends> All.

I've posted screenshots of before and after I perform my little workaround.

This has been going on for over a year, and I keep thinking the next version will fix it. Just went to 24.6.0, but no luck.

I'm running 24.6.0 under Windows 11 Pro for Workstations on an HP Z4 G4, 8-core Xeon @3345 @ 3.90GHz, so meets all the Avid specs and then some.

Anyone else seen this problem?

Try clearing your Pro Tools Prefs and see if the same issue occurs

Thanks, I can try that, but what settings will I lose if I do that (so that I can take some screenshots to make it easier to recreate them later)?

simply change the name of your Pro Tools Caches folder, then launch Pro Tools. A new caches folder will be created after.
