send routing level gets broken

Nuendo
1

Nuendo 5.5 NEK
OSX 10.6.8

Using sine tone…
-If you send a stereo channel to a mono channel the left and right sides sum giving you a 3dB hotter level.
-If you send a stereo channel to a stereo channel you get the same signal level as the source (no summing is occurring).

BUG: Once you have assigned a stereo channel send (lets say send #1) to a mono channel (expecting summing to occur, which it does) then reassigning that same send #1 to a stereo channel, then that stereo channel’s level is 3dB hotter for some reason… and visa versa.

The logic that besides when to sum the left & right channels gets stuck at the first sends setting.

This youtube video depicts the issue from scratch!

Just my humble opinion:
With plugin delay compensation currently broken, buffer barfing of VST2 plugins on unbypass, and this routing issue mixing is getting quite difficult in Nuendo these days. I for one would love to see a strong maintenance update addressing these major mixer engine issues in the near future.

Can you explain this?

Is this changing when you alter the pan law?

Hi,

Good one, thanks. Will be fixed.
But regarding the “broken delay compensation” we indeed need some more information. We think it works.

Thanks.

The issue i reported here BUG: plugin delay compensation is broken - Nuendo - Steinberg Forums is still broken in Nuendo 5.5, unless there is a new issue. Did you fix said issue in 5.5?

update

I am testing a plugin that seems to have PDC issues, so perhaps the PDC engine is in tact in 5.5.

I would sleep better though if you could tell me the PDC engine issue I reported here BUG: plugin delay compensation is broken - Nuendo - Steinberg Forums was actually addressed in 5.5?

Also please fix this previous plugin buffers remain on un-bypass - Nuendo - Steinberg Forums and this previous plugin buffers remain on un-bypass - Nuendo - Steinberg Forums

Yes, that should be fixed.

Hi,

you can, but what i was saying i was that the issue i was having was only occuring with one beta plugin. all others i tested were fine. so pdc is probably fine.
