In AudioEdit View, on the Master Track, Using Volume Automation... I faded out the end of the tune from Bar 40 to Bar 43. But, instead of following the volume automation, it actual started fading at Bar 23.
I highlighted all nodes (Control A) on the on the Master Track, deleting all nodes, and audio returned. Tried again, with same results. Guess I'm just having a bad day.
I suspect that this is fixed in build 1104, which is in pre-release testing for another day or two.
Andrew, I appreciate getting the patch early, but I'm sorry to say that "Patch 1104" does not fix the problem. The Master Track no longer fades early, but it doesn't fade at all. The fade drawn near the end of the track, just continues at full volume.
I have 1104 and the Master fade works for me. I don't know if you've tried it yet but when BIAB starts doing something unusual, "Return to factory settings" is worth trying. (I use the MOST option.)

Noel, in short no. Tried factory reset, behaving the same. Tried your SGU, same problem. Never had this before. Weird. But thanks!
And this on it shows the fade starting late into bar 34, but it is actually starting to fade at 31. It is acting totally erratically. Giving up for the moment! Thanks.

That doesn't happen in my testing. Could you send a song file that has the problem?
It's not the problem of the sgu but the software. I fixed the problem by downgrading my BiaB from 2024 to 2023.
There is another problem, just so you know. When you do Alt+F8 partial regen, you can only do regen on RealTracks, not RealDrums. Is this also a bug, or is it normal?

Generally, the hardest part of fixing a problem is being able to make the problem happen. Hopefully your SGU will allow the developers to make the problem happen.

I really agree with what others have mentioned and have really reached out to help. Why just blame the software and instead not provide objective situations that others could use to help solve any potential issues?
Maybe it is a software issue. I don't know. But how can anyone identify and work to fix it when after requesting a sample, no sample is provided, nor relevant information on how to create the issue?
Team work is beneficial.
