P3 Standalone Volume Level Displays vanish over time?

Post by Pyramid_12 » Fri Oct 06, 2023 4:17 pm

So when I'm working on the P3 Standalone on a particular project, Volume Level Displays vanish over time, almost like soldiers being picked off by a hidden sniper! . . has anyone else encountered this issue?

Now to add a bit more detail: this project has some elaborate routing - an ADAT BUS that I set up in the following manner - RETURN Tracks feed the input of a GROUP of 4 stereo tracks that are in turn routed to the ADAT Outputs. This little trick allows me to MULT any instrument that I want to route to a given ADAT output using the SEND knobs on any instrument or audio track. I have 3 sets of Stereo BUSses and one DUAL MONO to route KICK and BASS separately. This functions well, although the elaborate setup was better accomplished in the desktop version of Live 11.

However, this is where the BUG (?) seems to kick in. As I work on the track and switch between viewing the volume levels on the (about) 16 or so normal and return tracks, gradually volume level displays stop displaying as described above. Finally I'm playing the track "blind" though the audio is still clearly there as I can see in my RME TotalMix window.

The only thing that seems to fix it temporarily, is to reboot the Standalone - then the above "rinses and repeats"

Do you have a video of this happening by any chance?

If you can reproduce it and have a video, definitely worth contacting support too to let them know about the issue so it gets logged:

When I Freeze and flatten any External instruments into push, I lose all my level fader readings on the Push 3.

Even if I shut down and restart, the saved files have lost all fader level readings, even though the audio is playing back.

Not a way I want to work.

This machine is out months now. These bugs should have been zapped by now.

Yeah just sent it there. I’ll keep the thread updated if I get any significant progress from support.

I constantly have animations for devices go missing. They won't restore until I power cycle the device. I'll also try to capture a video of this happening.
