Anyone else had this problem? I make adjustment to levels within a track using the "info" button, but periodically lose those changes. Usually lose it when saving, sometimes when hitting the record button. I don't lose all the info adjustments, some older ones I made remain, but new ones disappear. It makes me think the file is corrupted somehow. It seems to happen on files I have worked on for while, no issues for weeks but then it starts happening.

I have a mac, I have tried cleaning out the caches but still happening. Can;t seem to find other people having this issue. And suggestions would be gerat, it has made a once great program almost unusable.

Yes it happens to me. And once it has happened I'm not sure it can be undone., or that there is anything to stop it happening. There must be a reason for it, but I've no idea what it is.

What I hate is when I mute a section with the info bar and yet when it is played back parts of the muted section can still be heard. Anyone else have this problem?

LOL. I know what you mean! People have cast RiffLinks I sang or played on where VERY strange things happened because the info layer (volume automation) changed randomly or disappeared altogether. Talk about a shock :O

At what point do we say....ok folks, let's tear 'er down and rebuild 'er from the ground up?!

Ohhhh yeah! That's when little muted bits jump out at random. It's a fun effect...ya know, if you're goin' for that sorta thing ;)

I've found that muted info line bits which still sound can be sorted by undoing and re-doing. Also changing ASIO devices while in RW puts the info lines back up to full volume. For instance, if I've done guitar layers using my Pod and then change to UX2 for Vox any previous info line stuff will default back to full on. Another thing that sometimes doesn't stick is the Delay setting, especially Doubler, this can be resolved by setting it twice. Hope this helps a bit :)

Same as Arncle Beyull, on the occasion that the info line doesn't seem to stick, undrawing and redrawing the offending area will fix it.

I don't see this much, but typically when there's a lot of layers built up towards the end of completing a song, and I've been working on it for a while.
