Recording dialog (add to active track of montage) doesn't work anymore

WL v12.0.40

Re: recording window option
According to the manual…

**** If Add to Active Track of Montage is selected, the audio is recorded in an existing audio montage at the edit cursor position. If no audio montage exists, a new one is created.***

This feature does not work like it did in previous versions. Now, When selected with an open montage, the recorded audio opens into a separate audio window instead of to the selected montage track.

Is there a reason for this change or is this a bug? This was the only way to record into a montage track and monitor my input levels from within WL (a very useful feature).

On a related note - are there plans to implement input metering via the montage track meters? That would help streamline the montage recording process.

This is a bug indeed. I am not sure there is enough time to fix that for upcoming 12.0.50.

You are right, this is missing. There is a plan for this, but this is not scheduled yet.

I forgot that this is already possible :slightly_smiling_face:
Activate track monitoring and have “Direct Monitor” OFF. And it just works.
What you actually see in the meters, then, is the montage output (Master Section output, actually), which also contains the monitored input signal.
