Freezing then unfreezing NI guitar rig 5 stacks turns off all the components...
 
As above, in X3b.

Then when you turn them all back on individually the Guitar Rig 5 components dont respond.
 
Just a warning to Fellow Guitar Rig Users to be wary of freezing and unfreezing...unless of course I am missing something here....

Just going through all my guitar rig stacks now that have been wiped....
 
In the Freeze / Unfreeze all the dials on all the components (volume, gain, I mean EVERYTHING, have been set to zero)
 
This isnt normal is it?

Does it to GR4 as well.  Guess I'll try reverting to X3a, that's a pretty serious problem if you ask me.

Hi dke!
 
I cant tell if its an NI issue or Sonar, to be honest I havent ever dared freeze and unfreeze a Guitar Rig stack before...
 
I will send through the offending Project File to the Bakers so they can take a look.
 
...Just a word of caution to all Gtr Rig 5 users (maybe previous versions as well but I dont have Grig 4) ALWAYS save your stacks/rigs and be careful of freezing, maybe save a project as a different name type, reopen and then freeze...i.e backup before freezing/unfreezing.

I've had no problems freezing/un-freezing GR tracks in X2 and earlier versions.  Don't know about X3a because I haven't  tried it yet, but X3b definitely has a problem with it. 
 
I hate to go thru the hassle of reinstalling X3a though, so I'm probably just going to watch out for it till it's hopefully fixed.

Hey Dan, like I say...not sure if its a Sonar issue or NI...its impossible for me to say.

I have had an on again off again problem with Guitar Rig components and Sonar since I've been using them. Nothing to do with freezing - they just randomly reset all controls to zero when I open a project sometimes. Definite compatibility issue - I hope Cake work with NI on this the way they worked with Waves.

Thanks for the heads up, markyzno. I'm a Guitar Rig 5 user. Think I will take your advice and save a version of my projects with a different name so I can have a copy of the amp settings.

Rock on!

Just tested this with X3B and yes it did in fact kill the stack for me as well. Will test now with X2A and report back.
 
OK just tested with X2A and the same thing happened, so at this point not sure if this Cakewalk or NI issue.
