[Solved] Silent Busses Detected...eh?
I've been getting this error very recently:  The bus Razor is on (output to) certainly isn't silent, it's the master bus! This has started happening when I open the project, since putting an instance of Camel Space in the FX bin of the channel that Razor is on. I've only just got this effects plugin, so was wondering if anybody else has seen this behaviour? Razor is running in Reaktor player, but hasn't caused any problems before now. Cheers :-)

Have you changed your audio interface?
If so, the old project/s reference the previous audio interface.
Once you reassign the outputs and save the project, all will be fine.

I have projects which show me this message every time and I've never been able to make head nor tail of it. I have never changed my audio interface and the tracks and buses listed are most certainly not assigned to silent hardware outputs - they're all audible and working properly. I gave up trying to work out what it meant and have simply put it down to a bug. In a couple of cases the messages randomly stopped appearing.

You can always turn the warning off by going into into Preferences | Initialization file, look for WarnSilentBuses then set it to 0.

I was under the impression that once the error is detected, a flag is set in the project and it does not ever get reset. If the warning message is a problem, it can be suppressed by setting WarnSilentBuses to 0 in Preferences > File > Initialization File. To get to the "Initialization File" setting make sure the Advanced radio button is selected at the bottom of the Preferences dialog.

Not for the last 15 years and I intend to keep it for that long again! :-D @ Carl, thx for the tip, I'll probably just do that. It's not that big a deal, just a bit weird.

Have you checked your sends? Every time I've seen this I've had a send with a deleted FX or something like that.
I selected -Delete Send- instead of --None-- and got rid of the message.
The Console View might help pick out the culprit as well.

Actually, that could be it, thanks. I couldn't see how to delete the send so set it to 'none'. 'Delete Send' is in the drop-down list of send targets is it?

I think this problem appears after I have moved my interface to a different USB port. I do believe I am suppose to use the same USB port each time, right? Maybe the solution.

That's what I did. Used to get this warning in X1. Setting must have copied from previous install. Now with the new PC and fresh install I get it on occasion in X2. Was looking for that tip. Thanks Carl. Mike

"Delete Send" is at the bottom of the drop down list. Has fixed the problem every time for me.

I have this happening all the time. Strange thing is, the bus it references doesn't even exist in the project.

There is no drop down, you have to enter it manually. - Go to Prefs--->File--->Initialization File
- In the "Option" entry box type WarnSilentBusses
- In the "Value" entry box type 0
- Click on "Set"
In the area to the top you should now see WarnSilentBusses=0. That's a zero by the way not an O. Close and restart Sonar and you shouldn't get the warning again. HTH

My buses went silent right in the middle of editing (inputting notes).

No there is no flag for this. Damn scook you actually got something wrong :) Its dynamically detected by looking for any outputs or sends that go nowhere. i.e "--None--". When that happens its normally not intended and you could have some tracks in your project not sounding. That is the sole reason for this warning. in 90% of the scenarios its something like this which is why we have retained the warning message. I asked in the forums some time ago and people voted to leave the warning in since it serves a useful purpose sometimes :)

I had that error in X1 and it disappeared until Platinum. Why it returned now I have no idea. I just ignore it and everything seems fine.

Ini file entry maybe? See earlier post #15 for more info, although I'm not sure why the ini file wouldn't be copied across at install time.
