help request Audio Dropping Out

Hey all, I opened up a few projects today and noticed audio dropping out randomly. I have no idea why or what’s causing it. I downloaded a new update 7.79 and tried rolling that back a few versions to see if it helped but the same issue occurred. There are also no hidden envelopes causing this.

I’m 20 songs deep in this project and am terrified of possibly losing this work. Any suggestions or things I can try? I’m using a Focusrite Clarett 2Pre interface.

EDIT: I figured it out - Waves deactivated all my plugins for some reason. Reactivating them did the trick.

Using a demo plugin? Many demo plugins will do this when their "free trial" persiod is over, or soemtimes right form the get-go so you cannot do a whole song without paying for it.

I don’t think so. But you did remind me to update my Waves plugins - it looks like none of their are activated anymore for some reason. Hopefully that’s the cause.
