  • Couple of bugs? Adaptive Limiter and track weirdness with latest update.

Was rendering some mastered files for a client last night and had a couple of weird things happen.  Maybe user-error, maybe someone else has seen them?  
First involved Adaptive Limiter.  After freezing the stereo master with Adaptive Limiter in the Fx bin or using File>Export Audio to a file without freezing first, Adaptive Limiter causes the first few miliseconds of the file to be silent ramping up quickly to level.  This makes it sound almost like a fade-in but in reality the song starts on the first drum beats, which are cut off.  I submitted a problem report for this.  I haven't tried upping buffers or anything because replacing AL with FF Pro-L or Limiter No. 6 causes the file to render normally with no issues so it's definitely an AL issue.  
Second issue is something I probably fat fingered but can't solve.  I did a mix down of all tracks to a stereo "master" track but didn't like some levels so went to delete it.  I highlighted the audio in the track file and hit delete and all audio tracks deleted.  I made sure I hadn't done a "select all" or anything and made sure even individually selecting and soloing tracks before going back to the one I wanted to delete but no luck.  So then I tried to just drag it out of the way but all tracks then dragged.  I must have fat-fingered some shortcut key to link all tracks but can't for the life of me figure it out.  I could delete it by selecting the track by clicking the track number, right-clicking and choosing "Delete Track" but really wanted to keep the track number but just delete the audio in it.  I do this all the time so this isn't normal behavior.   Anyways, just wanted to put this out there.
Thanks,
M.

Some other folks (including me) are seeing the fade-in on export issue as well. There are a couple other posts about it, and I thought I saw one where Cakewalk said they were aware of the issue and working on a fix. But the 2017.06 update didn't address it, and I can't locate that post at the moment.

I'm sure they're on it if there's history of reports...

I found the post on the Problem Reports forum. You may want to post as well so they get an idea of how widespread the problem is. Here's the link:

Thanks, I've reported. I thought I fixed my delete problem but it still is happening, now with midi tracks too :/
