Hi All,

My I must be getting old. Can't remember how to save volume on a specific track - so that when opened the volume is where I set it.

Seems simple, but many visits to help didn't help. Most frustrating I used to know how to do this?

Thanks for any help,
Brian

Brisn,

Whant I do is click on the Save As Icon mid-right at top.
When click Save As on the drop down window.

This has worked well. Making assumption you have 2014 or close.

Good Luck!

Hi Brian

Not absolutely related but I think Alt-F2 might also be your friend. Save with Patches and Harmony

Cheers

I think, if you save the song before you exit, after having edited it, the volume setting it had last will be restored in the new session.

I don't often mess with the volume setting master in BB. It would seem reasonable that ALL settings are saved when you click "save". I would certainly hope so.

I seem to recall this happening after having saved an edited song, which I was working on at a lower volume the night before.

Hi Folks,
Thanks for all the suggestions. I have tried them all and none have worked.

I can't remember exactly how, but I used to be able to do this. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Long shot, but in the Song settings window there's an Overrides button. Try toggling the volume switch in there. Make a difference?

Hi Ron,

At first glance this seems to do the trick. When I load a song it loads with all volumes set for zero, it seems. Then you adjust the volumes where you like them and it looks as though that's where they will load up next time. We'll see.

Haven't figured it all out, but the answer is in there somewhere, so, thanks a lot, Ron.

Brian
