Extremely weird bug

Cubase
1

I often select 2 tracks, (one soloed, one not) and press S to compare.

Now this bug I think on 14.0.41

  1. create 2 audio tracks

  2. solo one of the 2

  3. select both tracks (shift + click)

(you should have both tracks selected with one of the 2 tracks in Solo)

  1. press S a few times (to switch solo from track to track)

  2. hold shift + press option

I can’t find the pattern but both track get selected and soloed or both tracks get unsoloed. It might be if you do a "even number of solo (press S) to switch between the 2 tracks, it unsolos everything, and if you do an odd number of solo (press S) to switch, it solos everything, super super weird bug!

I use shift + option as the “Set cursor position” key modifier so this is highly annoying!

I tried a lot of different preferences but I wasn’t able to remove the behaviour (might be a line of code from 1989, haha)

I’m on M1 Ultra, Sequoia 15.7.3, Cubase 14.0.41.

Hi,

You are right. Sometimes, if I hold Shift+Opt after switching the Solo in your use case, both Solos become enabled or disabled.

I can replicate the issue in Cubase 15.0.10 too.

Reported to Stienberg. Thank you.

I ran into this issue as well, so I downgraded from the latest version to the previous one. The same problem occurs on the Windows version too. When I solo one track, then select multiple tracks and use the Alt+Shift key combination, the soloed track gets merged. I was using Alt+Shift as a cursor position shortcut, but after asking around, it seems this issue is happening in the latest versions of Cubase 14, Nuendo 14, and Cubase 15. Most people I know are holding off on updating because of this.
