Concrete Limiter silence on trax?

I recall other reports of the same problem in X1.

I do not recall reports of it happening X2 and have not used Concrete Limiter much since buying Pro-L

It has happened to me once in X2a, just the other day.
 
I removed it and re-inserted it, and all was fine.

This happened to me just yesterday on a bus in X2a.

I tried absolutely everything I could think of to try and get it to spark into life - remove module + re-add module; close + restart SONAR; I even rebooted my PC to no avail.

In the end, I had to create a brand new bus and repopulate it with the VSTs and Pro-Channel modules and settings.

It's happened quite a few times since I got the Concrete Limiter, but I thought it must have been user error on my part. At least I know that others have had this happen.

Maybe they don't know?
Has anyone told them?

Yep, I had this in X2a also. My solution was to save, close project and reopen it. Shutting down sonar completely wasn't necessary for me. Happened in a bus and a track. Report submitted. Everyone should do the same!

 
This just happened!
 
(and I'll send in a problem report asap)
 
I just changed the Pro Channel preset on my (soloed) drum bus from "Drums-Warm S-Type" to "Bus Warm Concrete Drums" and I got complete silence.
 
A quick check shows that the Concrete Limiter is registering the Input OK, but there is no output at all, hence the silence:
 

 
 
Trouble is, it's intermittent and not repeatable. I just set up a new bus and inserted the Bus Warm Concrete Drums preset and it's working perfectly.
 
 

It was the same for me when i had the problem (input shown in the CL, but no output).

It seems to appear when you use a PC preset including the CL (but not only, maybe)...

This has been happening all along, and has been discussed many times. The Pro channel has some quirks, but I still love it. Hopefully it will be dealt with in X2b or X3.

This is pretty well documented in both X1 and X2 and a. It occurs mostly when you load a Pro Channel preset into a project that has the limiter ( or the Ca-2a ) inserted in the chain. Restarting Sonar will almost always fix it and 'sometimes' you can re-insert the plug or re-start the audio engine as well. Its surprising that a bug that has been around this long keeps evading the the fix list for each upgrade. I suspect a re-write of the Pro Channel code is not high on the profit margin task list.
 
Its a shame because the Pro Channel effects are really quite good and end up in our productions more and more. The Concrete Limiter and the La-2a emulation are worth the price alone.

Messing with the EQ in Pro channel can and will cause problems too. I've had it do all kinds of weird things when moving nodes around. It loaded two eqs one time..followed by a crash. Still the concept is pretty awesome and the quality of the plugins are great.

They got back to me asking for more info but did not provide a way to reply! Replying to the email didn't work and trying to contact them by email resulted in a request for filling out a long form with registration numbers etc. You'd think they'd make it easy to help them.
