Sidechaining does not work with PC4K-S Type anymore

Hi,
I just noticed that sidechaining the PC4K-S Type ProChannel Bus Compressor does not work in newer releases like 2017.02 (23.2.0.45) anymore when I load an older project that was created with 2016.06 (22.6.0.26). I verified that by rolling back to 2016.06 and loading the session again => sidechaining worked again. Installing newest release and loading same session => sidechaining did not work (not working means the compressor did not respond to the signal = no compression).
 
Any suggestions?
 
Kind regards,
Bernd

    Hi Bernd, 

    Is this only in existing projects or new ones as well?

    Hi Seth,
     
    I have been testing this and it is only occurring in existing projects. In new ones the PC4K-S sidechaining works as expected.
     
    Kind regards,

    Hi Seth,
    have you been able to reproduce the issue? Like I said it is only occurring in existing projects.
    Thanks and regards,

    I am still facing this issue...even in a new session now. I figured out that when I use a compressor for sidechaining within an FX Chain of the ProChannel the issue is present. When I move the same compressor 'outside' to the FX bin, sidechaining works as expected again.

    Hi Bernd, 

    I'll pass your info on to QA to look into it further.

    Side chaining with ProChannel modules is so inconsistent and flakey that I just don't even bother with it anymore.
