Live 7.0.2 (& 7.0.1), exported audio silence...

Windows XP SP2, Live 7.0.2, Dual core Athlon 3200+

This is easily repeatable with my version of 7.0.2

(1) Start a new project

(2) Assign any old instrument to the MIDI track & record a few random notes. (I have repeated this with Operator, Electric, Tension and Sampler - makes no difference)

(3) Render this to a WAV -> Render works, WAV sounds as it should.

(4) Now add 'Audio Effects->Mastering & Helper->3 Band Ambience' (either to the MIDI track or Master track - makes no difference)

(5) Render to audio again (note that no settings have been changed or tweaked)

This final WAV is completely silent (or sometimes contains a 35ms 'blip'), and if you try playing the session in Live again you get no sound. Disable the '3 Band Ambience' effect and you can hear it again, so something in the rendering has caused the device chain to break horribly inside.

Disabling the 'reverb' modules in the 3 chains makes the audio come back, so I suspect it is something inside the Reverb module that breaks, but the default Reverb on its own does not do this.

Just tested - this also happens in 7.0.1 doing exactly the same thing.
