You create a global party, create a stack, set the input to the stack, everything works, save, open the program again, and there is no stack sound anymore…
please continue in one thread as before:
Hi!, there is a slightly different reason here, it does not relate to that topic, and it only appears in the stack when it is global!, the main sound is there, only the sound from the stack disappears or it loses the input (although the input is unchanged, and if you recreate the stack, the sound is there), in short, let it be here..
Did you try with version 2.2.51 already? Still problem?
Good day, yes, I just tried exactly as in the video:
New project, select that it is global and create a stack, assign it an audio input, there is a signal, nothing else, do not create any tracks yet, save, close the program completely.
Restart the program, and there is no sound from the stack, even resetting the audio device does not help, but I understand the reason is that the stack without creating an audio track for it simply does not have monitoring enabled, so there is no sound, if this is so, then the question is removed and everything works, but then an audio track is required for the stack.
Or for the stack to work without creating a separate audio track for it, it should have a monitoring button on, off in the settings.
But again, if the project (song) is not global, then there is sound, it turns out that monitoring is still enabled, and there is no need to create a separate audio track to commute the stack into it (but this only works when there is no global one)
The result of the above is the following:
If the stack is not global, it already has software monitoring enabled and it works even after the program is rebooted
If the stack is global, then for some reason after the program is rebooted, monitoring does not turn on inside the program, and accordingly there is no sound from it… I think this is the reason
I regularly used 12 global stacks yesterday in a live gig with .51, saved reopened project many times. No issues, I’m on win11 with UMC1820 interface, so something must be going on on your side, try clearing user data maybe?!
Does your global stack go to the created audio track? If so, then in this case there are no problems, we are talking only about the stack that works without connecting to the created audio track, namely the sound from it directly, I will not describe my system, it is already visible in my signature
P.S. When installing a new version, I always delete the data along the AppData path, etc.
I have both, 8 with tracks and 4 without tracks ! Both working as intended!
There is a border line case when you have a global stack that have track connected in some songs but no track in other songs. In that case, if you played a song with monitor off (playing the audio from track) , the you switch to a song that has no track connected, live audio stays off. If you played a song with track and monitor on, then switch to a “trackless” song, live audio from stack stays on.
New project, select that it is global and create a stack, assign it an audio input, there is a signal, all do not create any tracks yet, save, close the program completely.
Open the program, all the sound from the global stack is gone!
Do the same but the global is off, also create a stack only not global, and all the sound is there even after restarting, everything works!
Do the same actions and write if you do not mind the result
Watch the video pinned to the first post

But when the stack is not global and there is sound even after rebooting https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WdsKgcWxkPZVwzAOCFlKo11yDyccNF-P/view?usp=sharing
And the global stack in the video above should behave the same way, but for some reason it doesn’t work, it seems like monitoring isn’t enabled programmatically
And let’s wait for the developers to answer us after reading and watching the video with this problem. Their comments on this topic are more important to me
You are correct, there is something wrong there, we’ll check.

Thank you for the promptness! It seems that software monitoring does not turn on when the stack is global

Luckily i had all songs with tracks but in old project saved with previous versions also global stacks without tracks worked fine… thank you for finding it out so it can be fixed!!

The forum is exactly for this purpose, so that there is quick feedback from developers and users, everyone benefits from this!
Program problems are fixed faster

There is no “monitoring” in Stacks, only when a track is involved.
Initial case:
a) Audio Input->Stack Input->Stack Output (Stack Channel also in Mixer)->channel out
If a track is connected:
b) Track output->Stack Input->Stack Output
…so, the same as a) but with track output replacing audio input port.
Without a track, you should always hear the audio input.
With a track, track monitor must be engaged to hear track input (if any), but playback is always audible.
This is just for clarification.
The problem is the output of the stack, it appears to not be restored properly in some cases (looks like global stack only, and possibly only with newly created Stacks), we are investigating.

Thank you! Everything is clear, we are waiting for corrections
given you set up to playback when monitor active in preferences/audio (i set no playback so when monitor active only live input is audible no track playback).
Fixed with the next version, sorry for the inconvenience.
And thanks for helping!
The Stack Channel (as shown in Mixer, large fader in Stack) was not activated. It all looked ok, but internally, the connection was missing.
