I’ve also noticed that Studio One v5 is not following automation after a certain point in exports. I think it has to do with how the whole window freezes partway through the export, and the program is shown “Not Responding” in Task Manager on Windows 10. Personally I have only been using offline export, not realtime, so if this is an issue in both offline and realtime, we have a real problem.
Oddly it seems that some of my exports follow automation even though the window has frozen, which is why I didn’t recognize this problem at first. Studio One v4’s export would freeze the window every single time, but would always follow automation. This seems to be a bug that relates to Studio One v5 specifically, maybe relative to channel count? CPU load? I can’t tell. But I need to know how to fix it, and fast, because I need this to work to do my job.
