It would be really appreciated if, in a new version (or an update of 2018), the status of the MASTER VOLUME in RealBand could be saved with each song.
All other areas of the mixer are saved, why not the Master Volume.
When I render a Realband song to a .WAV file, I need to keep paper trace of each song and write the number for the Master Volume that I rendered it at in case I need to come back and readjust the volume. It's terrible!!

Serge,
My experience is that one of the master volumes saves per song and the other does not (it remains a universal setting).
Knowing this I can usually get the response I want/expect. Personally I never move the master slider located between the tracks and the outputs (#1 in image below), but rather make adjustments on the Audio Out master (#2 in image below), as these do save per song. At least for me.
Hope that helps

Never thought about that, thank you, I will try it.
But I have an EQ and a compressor on that output, will that change the amount of FX applied to the output?
For example, if I bring the Vol down to 50%, will I have less of the EQ on the tracks?
If the answer is yes, then each song will sound differently... which is not good obviously.

If all of the faders on the right could be sub groups then that MASTER ALL knob would make sense however oneof the faders has to be the MASTER OUT so the ALL knob is useless.Leave it full as Rharv said.
That knob was his idea. All his fault grin

Honestly, that fader has been there forever and I don't remember any reason to use it so I just leave it on 100%

If this was my fault, it was one of the first things that were my fault.
That fader has been there a looong time.

Good question. April 2014 was his last post on this forum.
