Mixdown brickwall not working and more

I'm still working on the project  from the other post. I finished piano edits and bounced the track, deleted the soft synth. I have a busses, all feeding the matter bus. I have Steven Slate FG-X on the master for brickwall. It's always worked before. No matter the latency (at 1024 now, was at 128 - I tried all points in between) I am getting a full 1 db over. Another thing I've not seen before. Something's fricked up here I guess. Looking for the cure. Thanks, Shep
Never been able to post pics here. I get an x every time I put a Dropbox URL in, so you hafta click it to see my screenshot...

    This is gonna sound stupid and probably not the fix but try making the GUI for the limiter visible during export.
     
    Another thing to try is Real Time Bounce or if that's what you were using switch to Fast Bounce.
     
    Those are sh*tty workarounds but might get you past the hump on this one export. Then let the Baker's know what's up.

    Will try the tricks, Beep - Thanks. BTW I used both Entire Mix and Main Outputs wih the same result.

    Well... the only reason I suggest those things is because I've had problems with some plugs not working unless visible but that is a VERY different set of plugs. I don't own any Slate stuff but it might knock something loose so you can move on. From what I've read here their stuff can be... erm... finicky in Sonar.
     
    The real time vs fast bounce is just a generic fix for export oddities.
     
    Also... I see you have the point number of Platinum you are running but it might help other users with the same plugins/issue if you gave the "street" name (like "Jamaican Plains") so they can help you troubleshoot without looking up point numbers. I have no idea what version that is myself.
     
    Good luck.

    I don't get it. I was also having  the L and R mixing down louder than the Center and it doesn't play back that way at all. In fact, I have the center louder because I'm demonstrating some bad vocal recording edit work I'm doing for someone.
     
    Turning off fast bounce yielded the correct LCR output, yet it doesn't seem the FG-X is doing it's job in the mixdown. Ugh - been a long day.

    I took the output file with overs into Sound Forge and FG-X works fine there. Hmmmm...
