Upgraded Pro Tools - MIDI tracks gone.?

[tommydigiowen]

Beyond frustrating.

I upgraded to 7.4.2 and none of my MIDI tracks (from previous sessions) are playing..... M-Tron MIDI plugins to be specific.

Any help would be appreciated.

What have you tried so far? Can you explain further about how you have your tracks setup? Normally M-Tron would go on an Instrument track, not a MIDI track, so check your signal and MIDI routing and then post back with more info if you're still stuck.

Yes, he's right. First move the M-Tron and midi data to an instrument track.

. . . But here is the real trick. . .

I heard this from one of the tech guys at GForce Software:

You need to select a physical input for the M-Tron inst track. Not sure why, but it works. Just select your S/PDIF input if you don't use it (or any other you wish) and you should hear sound.

Thanks guys.... okay, so...... Like I was saying before; my M-Tron tracks were working perfectly UNTIL I upgraded Pro Tools to 7.4.2 at which point these tracks quit working...... I have uploaded a screen shot of my settings -- perhaps you can glance at this and tell me if something is out of place?

Is there a reason I would have to re-route after upgrading?

Thanks alot!

All The M-Tron's in that screenshot are bypassed. Try enabling them and see if that helps.

Talk about feeling like an idiot......

The tracks were in fact bypassed but the reason for this was because I had "Low Latency Monitoring" on........ I turned this off and everything is working perfecto again...

ANOTHER QUESTION.......... Similar issue really -- I am attempting to use ELASTIC AUDIO on a session however when applying Poloyphonic to all of the tracks - 4 of them are remaining grayed out which is keeping me from being able to Increase the temp of the entire session........ Any possible idea why these 4 aren't responding? These tracks aren't anything special, they're regular Audio tracks (electric drums)..... The other 4 drum tracks processed with no problems; could there be something I'm overlooking here? (Tracks grayed out: HighHat, Tom1, Tom2, Tom3).
