Loosing All Audio Midway Through My Arrangement? Options

[ryanie]

I was working on a project this week and somehow at the same exact point in the arrangement I loose all audio (and all sound from midi tracks) there is no signal on any chanel beyond a certain point. I have no idea what is causing this. The weird thing is it does it on back up and earlier arrangements too... any suggestion to what this could be?

It's a really important track so it's stessing me out quite a lot, any help would be greatly apreciated

yow. what sequencer?

That is really strange..... especially the consistency of the dropout. I understand CPU overloads but, this is something different. Have you checked your track automation parameters? Maybe some kind of odd glitch happened along the way regarding those. You mentioned no signal on any channel...are you still getting the lit up meters on each channel? These are just odd stabs in the dark.

yeah,
my guess is track automation weirdness. but there are some things to check. Like: is there data in track? can you Solo a track past your drop out point? will audio buss along a sub from the track? depending on the sequencer you're using it could be possible you've done something even weirder. strange, but it sounds like a 'human error' type of problem. if it's not, it's even more interesting. keep us posted.

(Logic) Thanks for your help, I figured it out.. I had extracted the midi regions from a rex file for some vocals I chopped up and mapped in the exs24, the exs could not locate the original sound file (is the audio in the rex file or the clip I chopped up in recycle?) Anyway I had bounced the tracks so my cpu could handle it but it must have only bounced the song until a third of the way into the track... hence everything cutting out at the same point... mystery solved (except the audio from the sampler instrument, no idea what happened there)
