Does anyone know how to fix the play head/sector bar from glowing or having a blur effect to it? I can also drag and slide past the audio file into the grey area when this happens.
This issue has popped up before but I've always had to reinstall and wipe any SF registry keys to fix this.
Not exactly sure what you mean, but the space at the end of the channel waveform is after the audio ends... It's not part of the file. The black/blue area is the selected/ highlighted area. The display colors can be changed via "[i]Options> Preferences> Display> Change color preference for: Wave selected: Background, Wave channels 1 & 2, ect[/i]". You may also try disabling the 'Overview' waveform display. As I recall, "Options> Data Window", there's ten or twelve of check boxes to enable/disable the display parameters.
I understand that it's not part of the file or the color preferences of the software, but look how I can drag the play head past the end of the file. Also, notice how the play head/cursor is blurred or glowing. This happens once in a blue moon...about a year into the install. The line is blurred or glowing and is not a crisp, clean line. This is bug, and it drives me nuts when it happens. I would love to know how to fix this. I believe that it has to be a registry setting or something. It's happened on many systems at various times and won't go away until I reinstall SF on a clean computer...one with a new registry. If I install it after a normal system uninstall, it's there again. I might have to take a video of it to show you.
I don't recall reading of that behavior or experiencing it. A screen capture video would be useful to see exactly what's happening. Personally I prefer SF Pro 10's record and plug-in chainer UI, but it does not have LKFS loudness meters which are almost essential these days. I'm about to start using SF Pro 12 (beta), we'll see how that is.
Here's a video I made describing this. Thanks.
Some kind of 'crossfade' setting?? I can't duplicate it in SF-10 and I don't have SF-11 on this 'travel' PC. Maybe try resetting SF back to the original default settings. "Ctrl + Shift and launch the application", you may lose your display customizations though. Hopefully someone will recognize the behavior, I'll investigate further when I get back to my studio PC.
That seemed to do the trick. Never knew of that tip before. I play around with it more and report back if it did not work. Thank you.
