    Hello.

    I have track with following setup:

    stereo VSTi (MrRay) -> mono VST (TubeScreamer)

    I know that mono effect cancels the stereo image of the source VSTi (I just don’t care), output of the left and right channels of the track are the same. But if I bypass TubeScreamer effect, the output of the track is just in the left channel, right one is mute. Is it some generic limitation, am I doing something wrong, or is it just a bug?

    Thanks,

    Pavel

    I’ll look into this when I’m done with the 2.08 feature I’m working on currently.

    Thanks for the report. It turned out to be a bug. It is fixed in the latest 2.08 beta9. Let me know if everything works as expected.

    I’m sorry, but beta9 behaves identically to previous versions, the bug does not seem to be fixed 🙁 Any stereo – mono device chain I’ve tried behaves this way. Let me know if I can help you in any way (more explanations, sample projects files, whatever) …

    I have a stereo instrument chained into a mono effect. Bypassing the mono effect would previously only send the left channel through, as you described. In beta9 this is fixed so that both L+R produce output when the mono effect is bypassed. I just verified this with the Podium208_beta9.exe.

    Are you sure you used the latest beta9 when you tested? If so, please send me a project file that shows the problem.

    Thanks for the file. It was the bypass toggling that failed to update the audio routing properly. The mono effect I was testing with had a processing latency, so it was updated for other reasons than the bypass toggle.

    2.08 is released. Hopefully the bug is fully fixed now.

    Yes, it works now. Thanks a lot!
