I lost my Main Bus

[rguagenti]

I posted this on the Cakewalk board and haven't been able to get an answer there. Let's see if you guys can figure this out.

I am working in HomeStudioXL 2004. I am using the Track View.

Typically I have 4 busses showing A, B, C and D, and two Auxiliary buses. If you right click on Bus A you get a drop down and one of the choices is "Hide Main Bus". Being the curious type I clicked on it and lo and behold the Main Bus A dropped out of sight. Not being satisfied I did the same thing with Bus B.

My tracks are being output to A and A is working, I just can't see it, and there is no option to get it back. I want to apply some overall effects, compression, etc to the bus, but I can't(at least not in the Track View). If I go to the Console View it's there, but I don't use that View.

Anyone have any clue on how to get my bus back?

Thanks

Type the letter "M" on your keyboard (for Track Manager). Then simply put checkmarks back in the appropirate boxes.

If I go to the Console View it's there, but I don't use that View.

Ah, wise man! You should talk to moskus.

Get a cab, tell the driver to stop and get back. Otherway, call police...

Thanks guys

Lesson learned.

From now on this will be my first stop on all things Cakewalk, it already is for everything else.
