Graying out of tracks

Post by guitarguruguy35 » Tue Jun 13, 2006 8:12 pm

occasionally after i record a track it grays out.It happens in both midi and audio tracks This seems to be totally random. It doesnot affect playback but it does not allow me to pencil in midi notes ( i can pencil them in it just wont let me hear them) its so bizarre!
Anybody have this happen?

nothing changes! I dont touch the monitor..nothing
what I wind up doing is creating new tracks and dragging them from the greyed out tracks to the new ones and it goes a way.
Its really wierd

Thats what I thought but if it was the arrangement all the tracks would be greyed out. Why only 2 out of four. There are is no audio in any of the slots in the other view?
It seems to be a glitch. I can't get it to happen everytime. It just seems random.
Thanks for all of your replys!

'Back to arrangement' will not grey out all the tracks, only the tracks on which you were altering over on the session view...It's a bit confusing of a concept, but once you understand the "Back to Arrangement" button, you'll get Live...
