Playback issue: Same staff plays back on different channels

Hi Everyone, I would love if anyone could give me a hand

I have written some piano reductions to be orchestrated but I noticed that in the mixer, as soon as I hit Play, the VUmeter activity is shown on a different track.

I have checked that every different track has got its own Midi Channel

I’m attaching a couple screenshots

Hopefully someone has got an idea of what is going on!

Thank you in advance


It is likely because the audio output channel in HALion Sonic is wrong. I don’t have much experience with HALion Sonic but I expect that, if you want each instrument in HALion Sonic to output to its own channel, you must set this manually in HS.

Just re-apply your playback template (Play>Playback Templates…) and everything should sort itself out.
