this one's sort of funny, and i'm sure i hit some button somewhere and didn't realize it, but anyways...

there's this one project of mine - just one - where when i record enable my tracks and hit record, cubase refuses to start recording. the record button lights up red, and does nothing, until i hit play, and then it will start tracking. this is making it a total pain in the ass to get anything done, because it after i hit play, it won't play the punch in preroll, the metronome precount, or any of that...the cursor just starts immediately from where it's set.

so, question: does anybody know how i can get it back to recording when i actually hit the damned record button? again, i'm pretty sure this is some sort of preference issue, but i tried looking through all the menus, and couldn't find anything specific to this.
 
Have you checked the left and right locators, and whether the cycle button is on?
 
nothing funky going on in the transport...

no looped/cycle playback

i've pretty much come to the conclusion that i have a corrupt project file. anytime i try to import/export tracks from this same session, i get an error message about some missing rewire .dll(????), and cubase crashes. i've checked my other project files, and they don't suffer from any of these problems - it's just the one
 
Here's what I have done ....

I have that happen from time to time and I just create an entire new project.

I then import/copy all my midi and audio into the new project.

Clumsy but it works for me.
 
eh...the session in question is now totally fucked

i recorded drum tracks for the tune at another studio, then tried to import the .wav files...cubase crashed, and gave me some weird rewire .dll error

so i was like...ok, i'll export the tracks that i have here, then import into a new session with the drums. cubase still crashed.

now, cubase won't even let me select a track/event and move it...i click and drag, and nothing happens. grrrrrrrrr.

Damn, dude. Call Cubase support - that's *exactly* what they're there for - supporting you when their software does shit like that and fucks up your work.
