Audition selection - make it follow MIDI CC?

Post by LGK_Dude »

I have a weird situation. I use "Audition selection" all the time, and in my studio, on a MIDI track it will follow the MIDI CC's I have programmed. So for example if I have programmed a crescendo via CC1, when I audition the selection it will not only playback the notes, but will playback this crescendo data as well. However in a clients studio, Audition selection only plays the notes and does not follow the MIDI cc crescendo! I should specify I'm making selections in the tracks window mainly with the pointer tool, but sometimes with the I-beam tool.

I'm assuming this is some sort of preference I set, but for the life of me I cannot remember what its called. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It sounds like you need to turn on Event Chasing in the studio computer for whatever CCs you need.

It's a dedicated window that allows you to selectively choose what chases. The command in one of the rightmost menus (I'm nowhere near DP ATM).

Yeah, I have verified all event chasing is turned on - both at my studio and at the clients. Searched the manual as well to see if there are specific settings for audition selection, and so far have come up empty. I dont know if it matters, but my client is still on 9.02 where I'm on 9.5, but I remember Audition selection always playing back MIDI CC's in my studio for as long as I've had DP, where as the client swears it has never done so in his studio. Very strange indeed.
