Where adding a new track

Maybe you need to reset all preferences back to factory settings. And since I just wrote the same in another topic I’ll just link to it (different issue, possibly same cause):

Issue with Audition Playback in Audio Warp Mode - Cubase Pro 13

Maybe you need to disable the entire preference folder. This article describes where to find it on Mac or PC. Kindly close Cubase, rename the folder (Cubase 13_64), just one underscore at the beginning will do. Then run Cubase again. You will lose some settings but you can check whether the described issue is solved. You can always revert to your old settings by closing Cubase, deleting the new Cubase 13_4 folder and rename your old one back to its original name.
