Yes, this topic is old, but problem still here… for me!
I am testing version 8.4… I recorded a short MIDI, then I went to do other things, and also checked this site.
I went back to Ardour - still opened! - and doubled the track - testing system CPU etc. on older PC.
Then I play, no sound - que?
I checked and there is no MIDI notes any more. No undo - in case something was mistakenly undone, just empty track!
PS I am a Bitwig user, but I like to explore… other DAWs
That is odd. The issue was fixed years ago!
She you said “doubled the track” have you duplicated it and used a new playlist? could it be that the MIDI data is still there in another playlist of the original Track (and as .mid file in the session folder)?
No problems, I was testing, but… mmm
It may be a one off.
Unless I inadvertently caused a Undo, via keyboard. I am a keyboard guy and I do not even know if there is a undo via keyb, although I checked Edit/Redo/Undo there was no redo !
Yes, I found MIDI file’s’ within project folder name/interchange/foldername/midifiles.
AT least they stay there - GOOD !
Strange thing now, i re-opened the same file and MIDI files are there!
Anyway, within the MIDI files folder there were 8x 26 bytes files.
Just to inform what went on.
No problems
