PG, I know Justin has already mentioned this to you, but I wanted to post it here in case others experience this as well…
A couple of times now I’ve had the Master Section completely reset itself, as in when I open a project, there is nothing in the Master Section anymore. I only use the Master Section for my favorite analysis plugins in the Playback Processing section, and dither in the Final Effect/Dithering section. I’ve saved a preset so now when it happens, I can easily restore it, but it’s frustrating when it happens. Also, I can’t remember for sure, but I think when this happened yesterday, I also had to reselect my default custom Workspace Layout. So I think this may be another instance of Wavelab not reading or writing to the defaults properly. I know many of my issues have circled around this topic, so maybe I still haven’t solved it. Thanks for your help!
FWIW… For my last issue that was similar, the problem was that I had the sync settings enabled in the General Preferences, but I’ve since unchecked that box, and it hasn’t reset itself or anything.
That means a setting file was lost or damaged after quitting WaveLab the last time. Why, I don’t know.
Keep a Master Section preset to restore your favorite plugin settings.
This also happens to me in the Mac version (WL 11.1.20 build 62)… I thought it was user error. I haven’t figured out how and why it happens.
I only use the Master Section for Playback Processing plugins… This is the plugin: SampleGrabberV3-x64 for Flux Analyzer.
Sometimes when I reload WL it’s there, other times it’s not and I have to put it back in. It’s not a huge deal, but would be nice to know it’s always there with out thinking about it before going down the habit hole of why I am not getting my desired results in FLUX.
Paying closer attention, I’ve had a number of weird things happen when launching WaveLab today:
Master Section Resets to Empty
I get the start up prompt even though I have it set to open with the Empty Space, Master Section did NOT reset and contained Clarity M.
The 4 montages that I had open when last quitting WaveLab were open when I launched WaveLab, Master Section did NOT reset and contained Clarity M.
I think we need better stability for what happens when WaveLab is quit and reopened as it seems a bit random.
This is not totally new, probably just underreported because it’s not a major issue and everybody probably just assumed it was something on their system.
This is still happening for me. Like Justin, SampleGrabberV3-x64 for Flux Analyzer in the Playback Processing plugin slot. I seem to have to reinsert this guy a few times a week. Not a deal breaker, just makes me question reality.
Same here. I find myself having to re-add Clarity M to the Playback Processing slot. Sometimes when this happens, my custom layout is still in place, but other times when this happens, WaveLab also reverts to the Default Layout.
