gain and polarity settings not recalling with track templates
howdy -
Just wanted to check with other folks around here before filing a problem report.....S-Plat Kingston, for the record.
I have a folder with tracks, some of which have their polarity reversed, and some have non-0 gain settings. I save it as a track template. When I insert that track template into a different project, all the template's track gains are set to 0, and any tracks that had their polarity reversed are reset to normal.
I've opened the templates I saved in Platinum in X2 and X3, and all gains and polarity settings are recalled correctly, so the templates are saving correctly. They're just not recalling certain settings when opened in Platinum. Is there a command line or INI option that has been added to Platinum?
Thanks in advance for any help....

I just thought of creating a thread myself regarding soft synth templates. Let me post it here itself. I am having this issue for a while, since X3 times. When I insert a soft synth template the input of the soft synth audio track gets routed to the previous soft synth's output. Everytime I insert a soft synth template I have to manually re route the inputs. Anyone have the same problem?

Here's the process.... 1. Make some gain and polarity changes, then save the tracks as a track template.  2. Insert the track template saved in step 1.  As you can see, neither the tracks' polarity or gain settings are recalled.... Here are the direct links to the images on Flickr so you can zoom in for more detail: step 1 https://flic.kr/p/Em9aoW step 2 https://flic.kr/p/EotbLK I've got a gigantic set of projects that is due is less than a week: 60 individual projects, all of which need to be based on the same templates. This is a HUUUUGE problem if I'm not missing something under the hood in Platinum. So please please please, someone tell me there's an INI option that was added with Platinum that determines how track templates are recalled.....if that's not the case, I'm gonna go hide in a corner and pretend I don't have a giant deadline looming over my head

My issue is there in my own synth templates and also sonars factory templates. What I have noticed is that something happens when I insert a soft synth template that all inputs to the audio tracks in the template goes a -1 . I know it's hard to understand so let me illustrate. Let's say I open a new empty project with no audio or midi track. And I insert sonars factory soft synth template True Pianos 》Piano Dub style. Everything gets inserted as it should be. No problem. Everything gets routed as it should and I can start playing the piano or record it. There is no issue when there is no other synth present in the project. Now I try to add one more synth the problem comes up. I go on and insert factory template Studio Instruments Bass 》Chorus Rock. And try to play it I hear no sound. So I split the instrument track and check the routing. No problem with the midi track, it's routed ok. Then I check the audio track is input is routed to True Pianos Primary Output: Stereo. Same thing happens for what ever synth template I insert. Only when there is no other soft synth in the project everything gets routed properly or else the input gets routed to the previous synth output. Now if I insert a soft synth with multiple outputs. Eg now if I insert Session Drummer 3 》TR-909 Produced Multi-Out. SD3 Kick track's input gets routed to SI-Bass Guitar 1 Primary Output: Stereo. SD3 Snare track's input gets routed to SessionDrummer 1/2 stereo (SD Kick output). And SD3 HiHat gets routed to SessionDrummer 3/4 stereo (SD Snare output) and so on. That's y I said everything gets routed to a -1. Is there any solution. Is it a bug? It happens only with templates. No problem if I try inserting the synth from the synth rack. But I always use the templates coz I have a large number of custom templates which I always use.

Kicksvile I tried changing polarity and gain and use it as a template in Sonar platinum I had the same issue. The template didn't recall the gain and polarity. It's all fine in x3 though. Hope someone has the solution.

No offense intended, but can we keep this on point with the original post, please? I'm trying to find out if other people are having the specific problem I posted about, so if you've got a different issue with track templates (even if it might ultimately be related), please start your own thread.

Thanks for checking into the problem I was having, sonarman1 - I really appreciate it. I don't mean to be picky about cross-posting issues, but I'm under a deadline and need to know ASAP if it's just my system or if other folks are experiencing the same problem.

Alright! I do understand. Just started a new thread. But can I keep these posts here, if someone needs to reply to me do visit there [ISSUE with Soft synth templates input (changes to previous synth's output)]. Have a look at it!
