It's not just the groups. I just had a terrible experience trying to record my daughter singing using layers. We got so many drop-outs we had to return to x1 (a backup).
So there were lots of issues in X2 with this particular project. The project has 6 Dim Pros and a few vocal tracks so far. The song is short (Less than 3 minutes).
It's working fine in X1.
In X2, there were issues with the groups. Then issues with soloing. I was unable to mute various tracks at different times... My kid (age 9) asked me to drop the volume on various tracks to be more back ground. I tried but I was fully unable to adjust the volume. Muting clips didn't help. I didn't want to delete the tracks all together. I hit 5 to jump to Console view and Crashed. I sent the Crash report, restarted and kept trying. I spent fully 1/2 an hour trying to do it.
I'm wondering if part of the problem might be starting with an X1 project and opening it in X2. Perhaps this has caused issues.
Additionally, I noticed that while I have the preference set to record at 24 bit and render at 32, all the vocal tracks showed as 32 bit when I checked the associated Audio Files. Perhaps this was causing some of the load and drop outs?
I think I'll try creating a whole new project in X2 and importing the various tracks from the failing project and see how that helps.
