Hello everyone,

I’m experiencing an issue with setting up a trigger for an audio file in my system. I have a 30-second audio file routed to Bus C from input #30. During our show, I sometimes fade out the Bus C audio to 0. At this time the audio for input #30 continues to play in the background until it finishes, which is normal.

However, I would like to set up a trigger that automatically sets the volume of Bus C back to 100 once input #30 has completed. Unfortunately, my current trigger setup on input 30 isn’t working as intended.

Here’s how my trigger is configured:

Trigger: OnCompletion
Action: setBusCVolume
Input: preview
Volume Range: 0-100
I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to resolve this issue. Thank you!

Set the value to "100".

That'll set it to 100.

There's currently no shortcut for fading on buses.

100 didn't work either. I'm thinking maybe it won't work with audio files?

I missed where you said it was in the background.

That's your problem, in addition to the number.

Add it as a layer on your output. Make sure you turn off "Automatically play with transition". Keep the trigger value at 100.

For reference, that trigger only works when something is on the output.

It used to require that thing be the output, but that was relaxed to include layers on the output with update 27.0.0.81.
