Hi,

For some reason I still hear my tracks when sending them to output 3 and 4. Even when I unplug the cables the audio signal is still there. It’s breaking my head in. It wasn’t like this the last time I used my force. It even does it in older projects. I’m on the latest firmware.

Any help would be appreciated.

Mines is OK.
Did you try downgrading to see if it still does it?

Where can I find older firmware? Shame for the music I made on the new firmware but if it fixes it it’s worth it.

Tried that but it isn’t the cue mix. What I did is route output 3 and 4 to my sp303. I have set my track outputs to 3,4. What happens now is that I hear my tracks doubled up. It sounds like my force is still sending signal to the main outputs and the sp. I tried unplugging my cables and I still hear the signal. I checked everything I could think of.

Yes but I also tried with monitoring off. I even tried changing the monitoring on the outgoing tracks.

Check if there is audio sent on the buses

Also checked this. There are no active busses.

Unplugged cables , tested on new&old project , cue mix , buses , all checked , can't think of anything else
Well I assume you did "reset preferences" after updating

Edit : might also check if this happens on both main and headphone out
