I just upgraded to Cubase 13 yesterday and while I was mixing this track, I opened up a compressor on a group channel. The “bypass” option was greyed out and after setting the meters and closing it, I could no longer edit the plugin or even bypass it. I can’t even remove the insert or change it to something else. The only way to bypass the plugin is to use the inserts bypass button. I also tried with some other dynamics plugins and some of them just stayed greyed out and didn’t open, I ran this experiment on my other group channels and had the same outcomes
. Can someone help?

Hi,
Disable the Constrain Delay Compensation option, please.

Oh okay, I will try that. I think I have had this kinda problem before and that was the solution. But doesn’t this Delay Compensation thing help with latency? Am I supposed to just toggle it or leave it on?
Hi. Yes, I experienced the same, also in Nuendo 12. Fine that it solves the problem, but to be honest, this is only with some of the steinberg plugins.
Why is this happening ?? I tested further, and the fault only occurs when using the plugin in the group channels, but NOT on e.g. audio channels.
And when the fault occurs, you can’t even click to remove the plugin any more.
So it is actually causing a fault on the UI as well. AFAIKS, this is an anomaly with steinberg dynamics plugins … EQ ones do not behave like this, nor e.g. Blue Cat’s freeware gain plugins. Can this be something to do with plugins that have side-chain options ? But in all cases, incorrect operation with the audio, should not crash the functions in the UI. In order to remove the plugin, I could right click and move it to post fader slot, then remove it, or alternatively close the project and re-open.
