Input Echo button stays on

I cannot turn the darn thing off! Any ideas on how to turn it off?

I remember this happened to me once, but I can't remember how I fixed it. I was getting FX from one track being applied to the "audition/what I hear" to any track I was attempting to record on.
 
Does it "stick" between closing the project, sonar, and going back into the application?

same thing here too.  I end up having to switch my input, if I don't want to hear that channel.  ALso, other channels sometimes input to it as well.  The global button doesn't work either.

This problem started with 2017.01 I posted it here with no replies. It doesn't happen very often to me, but when it does I have to use this global button in the Control Bar in the Mix Module (I think that's the name).

I have noticed this intermittently, and I think it started before the last update in my case. It seems to fix itself after a minute or two weirdly enough. But meantime, you could switch your input as suggested above.

are we talking audio or midi ?
 
To automatically disable input monitoring during playback:
Go to Edit > Preferences > Audio - Playback and Recording and clear the Disable Input Monitoring during Playback check box.
When this option is enabled, input monitoring will be disabled on all tracks during playback but not during recording.

In my case it's midi only. Many times I trigger and record 2 midi tracks at the same time, so each track has input monitor on. But yesterday I was not using that method and it happened when I was recording a bass part and I noticed there was something wrong with the piano, so I stopped and moved to the piano track to fix it and the bass input monitor was stuck "on" and wouldn't turn off until I hit the global button.

This happens when I am using addictive drums 2. I have closed and reopened the project and still this persists. The global button makes no difference. I have gone into preferences and changed the Disable Input Monitoring during Playback check box. I have changed the input - makes no difference. I had to delete the whole track and start again. It's a right ball ache.

Apologies, it's not AD2, it's dimension pro.

Success!. Ok what you need to do is to go into MIDI - Playback and recording- Turn off 'Always Echo Current Midi track'
 
Thanks  for the responses so far - hope this helps other people who have this problem.

Whenever I select a midi track the input echo button turns on for that track. If it doesn't I can't hear the midi synth. If I understand you correctly using your workaround, I'd need to manually turn on input echo for each midi track I wanted to record.
 
If so I'd rather use my workaround which is when it gets stuck, just hit the global input echo button in the Mix Module to turn off all input echo buttons. I hope this is fixed in 2017.02 so we can quit using workarounds.

I had this happen to me over the weekend and had seen this post so I'm like "Oh no...."
I did get it to turn off I think? - maybe I blew it off as it was a simple instrument track and I was done recording but still....
 
Me too!

Can anyone tell me if this input echo problem is fixed in 2017.02? Except for this bug I'm liking 2017.01 and may stay with it a little longer unless the bug is fixed.
