Where to set automatic monitoring for tracks enabled? (Cubase 10) -> bandmachine-mode is automatic

Hello,

since yesterday something changed in my Cubase 10.

Before that - when choosing any track in the project window the orange loudspeaker-symbol was automatically active. Now it isn’t any more.
How can I restore that as default behaviour for Cubase again?
Tapemachine-mode is in automatic mode (not manual, when record mode is active, during recording).

I know that I can set per preference to set tracks automatically in record mode (when choosing). That works.
Did not find a way to set auto-mode for monitor on when choosing any track in the project window. Thought it would be when bandmachine-mode is set to automatic - but no.

Thanks for any hints…

You need to set the monitoring to “monitor if record enabled”.
Together with the setting to enable recording on selected tracks, it should do what you want.

Hi Steffen,

thanks. I already tried that, but did not gave what I wanted, seems that monitoring still does not get activated. I uploaded a short video plus two pics (where you can see how it looks like in my VST-preferences view and in the project and mix console-view .
In the video I had sucessfully activated auto-recording on before - and it works, but only for audio files, not for vst-instruments.

Found this thread, where Martin said that there is no way for auto-enabling monitor (maybe it depends on what version, here it is version 10)

It behaves different on instrument and MIDI tracks.
