Jim,

Here's some tips that might help resolve:
1:
When you select S for Strings, are you seeing notes on the piano roll at the place where you want the fade to occur?

2:
If you play the track immediately (before saving etc) do you hear the fade occurring? (You shouldn't need to save before being able to review the changes)

If not, maybe your midi device doesn't accepts these control change messages (highly unlikely).

3: What midi device are you using for strings?

4: Presumably, the strings track is in yellow or light blue on the Mixer Windows? (i.e. it is definitely a midi track)

5: There's two(2) S buttons. The right-most one is the Soloist Track, not the Strings Track. Just checking.

6: What is the Channel set to (could be All, but make sure it matches your Strings Synth)

7: In Notation view, if you select the # button to view the Event List, do you see the Expression Events for that track?

Hope these tips help
regards
Trevor
