Bug: MIDI CC’s are sent from all MUTED tracks

[Alasdair]

MIDI CC’s are sent from all MUTED tracks on;
Transport: Stop [Numpad 0]
Transport: StartStop [Spacebar]
Transport: Go to Project Start [Numberpad .] (after Stop or StartStop)
Transport: Go to Left Locator [1] (after Stop or StartStop)
Transport: Go to Right Locator [2] (after Stop or StartStop

This occurs irrespective of the settings of:
Preferences: MIDI: Reset on Stop
Preferences: MIDI: Chase Events: Controller/Expression Maps
Preferences: MIDI: Never Reset Chased Controllers

I am currently using Cubase Pro 14, but this also occurred in Pro 13 and previous Pro versions. This appears to be a similar issue to previously reported in Cubase 9:

C 9.5 - CC data being sent from a muted track on stop

Hi, I have just updated to Cubase 9.5 and have come across a problem with CC data being sent from muted tracks when I click stop. I have checked the preferences to see that Reset on Stop is disabled, and it is. This is what is happening in a little more detail. I have recorded a midi part from my Moog Subsequent 37 and recorded filter moves at the same time. I have then recorded this as audio, muted the MIDI part and gone on to record some other MIDI parts and then recorded as Audio etc. T…

An Oddball Problem with Control Changes

Thank you. I can’t think of any good reason for that to happen. Maybe a bug? Anyway, I’ve figured out a workaround.

This is effectively preventing recording multiple tracks with monotimbral external instruments that share the same MIDI channels.

As a workaround, the tracks with MIDI CCs that I don’t want active, have to be temporarily ‘disabled’ rather than muted, but this is tedious and error prone to do for multiple tracks.

Another bug appears to be that disabling the Preferences: MIDI: Never Reset Chased Controllers, doesn’t prevent the chased controllers being reset.
