MIDI editor not remembering track selection - RESOLVED

[glent]

In the MIDI Editor I need to press the track name in the track selector tab in order to hear any sound from a MIDI instrument. It does not remember the choice and I need to repeatedly press after every single task. In a heavy editing session that could be quite numerous, meaning I need to press the track selector every time. Never had this issue before. Is this something new or is there something I'm missing? This doubles the amount of keystrokes for the most basic edits. I just want to click once per track and have it remember until I choose otherwise.

I'm just grasping at straws here, but it sounds like you have SOLO turned on?

Also, I wonder if the Track Select (as sidebar) works any differently than the Track Selector that is floating? They seem to mirror each other. But perhaps the sidebar track selections will stick after a process.

But yea, you shouldn't have to select a track to hear it.

Figured it out on my own, I un-checked 'Solo front-most MIDI edit window' in Preferences/Play and Record/MIDI Option/MIDI solo setup. (referred to page 232 in user manual).
When it was checked it lead to unpredictable monitoring when a track was soloed.
