Hi JameyZ,
I just can't figure out how to display anything but all channels in the Raven mixer in Cubase 9 / Raven 3.5. My alignment is perfect if all channels (minus inputs and outputs) are selected for visibility. I've got the sync button unchecked, the colors defaulted -- all the things I'm supposed to do. When I try to either click off any channel in the visibility area or choose "Show Selected Tracks" for a subset of tracks, the Cubase mixer changes, but the Raven mixer steadfastly and stubbornly continues to show all channels. Of course, this is maddening because I'm working on something with 75 tracks and I am wasting so much time banking my faders around my mix.
Any help in figuring out how to get this working would be greatly appreciated!!
Regards, BillD

Thanks for your response. I followed the process suggested, but no change. I still can't display less than all channels - if I remove a channel from visibility, all of the Raven mixer slots display throwing off the synchronization. Do I have the correct and/or compatible version? I'm up-to-date with Cubase 9 (maintenance release 9.0.40 build 292 (64 bit). Raven 3.5. V-Control Pro version 2.2.10.2.
I've had this working before I upgraded to Mac OS 10.13.3. So, I'm presuming something isn't the same since my upgrades driven by OS (High Sierra, Raven 3.5).
Thanks, in advance, for your help!

Jameyz -- any ideas? Is it an anomaly of the version of Cubase? Alignment is perfect if all channels are visible. I guess, as I think about it, there are other anomalies. Sometimes, I can't get the Mute button to respond to touch and have to resort to the mouse. Another time, my automation on one channel moved the Raven faders on other channels (not in Cubase, it worked fine). So, something is definitely a bit off. I don't really understand how V-control (v 2.2.10.2) factors in, but maybe something is wrong there? I would really appreciate some help as I've taken to turning off the Raven mixer which defeats the point of having the MTI2 in the first place.

Maybe you need to trash your Cubase/Nuendo Preferences. As you see in this video, it follow the Visibility Configuration perfectly.

JameyZ -- I trashed preferences and started over many times trying different approaches to setting up - run the Raven batch that sets up, following the steps one by one, anything else I could think of. I've watched and re-watched all of the videos again for, maybe, the 10th time and I can't figure out the missing step. I've attached what my screens look like. *The first is with all channels visible (you can see that the input channels are not visible and you can trust me that the output isn't as well. *The second is when I click the piano track visibility and everything is off by 1 *The third is when I choose the "guitars" visibility configuration - absolute mess I know there is a solution -- I had it working before I upgraded to Raven 3.5!! I've probably spent, in total, about 12 hours trying to fix this over the past month -- I need to get past this. I'm considering just upgrading to Cubase 9.5, but I don't want to find new problems there. So, i have some questions: 1) i was reading the "Cubas 9.5" post and learned there that there were changes in Cubase 9.5 that would require some programming from Slate for batch commander. Is that done and where can I get that update? 2) As i've been experimenting trashing preferences and starting up again, I used a Slate batch command in setup. Is there an updated version of that for Cubase 9.5 (and could that be part of my problem here in Cubase 9)? 3) I also noticed that it chooses Raven Keys CU 8 for the key commands preset. Is there a CU 9 or CU 9.5? Also, I'd created an updated version because I created about 50 batch commands. That seems to be gone, probably with the preferences trash. Anyway to find that? I thought it would be a file, but I think it just updated .xml Any guidance you can provide? I've truly put my time in on this one! Thanks, Bill

Still hoping to get help working through this issue. I mentioned before that the version of V-control being used is 2.2.10.2 -- is that the correct version? I saw on Neyrinck site that that the current version is 2.2.11.3.

Mix Console 2 doesn't send out Visibility Configuration data.

Yay, yay, yay!!! Worked like a charm! I guess a picture is worth a thousand words. Great catch JameyZ -- I knew there was some straight-forward thing I was missing. I don't think I would have ever caught that except by pure luck.
I appreciate your help! Thank you.
Regards, Bill
