the tracks are not linked
Did you make the samples yourself? I’ve had this issue a time or two–and it always turned out that I’d accidentally recorded more than one track when making the sample.
If it’s not that–I have no idea.
? i’m in the Sample Editor window. it’s focused on it. and it’s SOLO’d.
which means i shouldn’t be able to hear ANYTHING other than the selected track.
it’s just one waveform/clip.
I bet you’ve solo safe’d another track without realising…
Look for a track where the ‘S’ solo button has a strike through.
nope. i’ve already checked for ‘solo safe’. also, solo safe isn’t a “strike through”. it’s more of a capital letter D.
i actually found the reason why this happens. apparently, if you use melodyne in cubase, the recorded section of the melodyne will PLAY THROUGH the ‘solo’ function even if you’re in the Sample Editor and completely bypass the ‘solo’ function for some braindead reason.
how do you guys have the audacity to call this software ‘pro’ with this many bugs and inconsistencies just rampant throughout the software?
This is a user forum. You are barking up the wrong tree 
Besides, I wouldn’t call this a bug. However, I agree that using Melodyne as an ARA extension can be tricky.
“barking up the wrong tree”
the devs read the forums. what are you waffling about lmao.
“i wouldn’t call this a bug”
it literally is a bug. it has an unexpected outcome that the devs did not intend.
They generally don’t unless a thread is tagged as an issue or a feature request, but you did neither. I could tag this thread as an issue now but you’ve marked it as solved so any Steinberg rep looking around would probably ignore it now anyway.
