Entering MIDI Editor kills solo'd tracks

Post by Killahurts »

I have Superior Drummer 2 set up as a virtual instrument, with one MIDI track, and aux outputs assigned to multiple individual tracks in DP, like kick, snare, OHs, so it's more like mixing a real drum kit. Whenever I solo the drums or any other channels in the song, everything works as expected until I double click on the drum MIDI to edit it (I'm working in the consolidated window). Then whatever is solo'd is muted, whether it's one or multiple tracks, not just drums, anything. Even if I enter the editor while it's playing, it simply goes silent. I have my solo safe tracks set up correctly, but I even tried turning those off and doing it manually, still no go.

If I enter the editor while nothing is solo'd, everything works as expected, except for the notes suddenly stop sounding when you click on them sometimes (in audible mode). Leaving the editor and coming back fixes it, until it stops again. I don't know if the two are related, but it's pretty hard to edit drum MIDI when I can't solo them out.

Anyone else having this? Thanks for being here guys!
