My track losses volume half way through

Having trouble with LMMS? Ask about it here.
Hey everyone, this is my first post in this forum. I've been using LMMS for about 4 years now and I've never had this issue before: about half way through a one of my tracks the volume for everything suddenly drops and stays down until the end. My guess would be a corrupted file but I was wondering if anyone had any input on this?
Welcome to Lmms forums Seajammy. :)

Wow! Now this is a strange problem.
Question: Did you use any automation, or automate any synth/plugins/FX channel volumes, in your music project? :)
brandystarbrite, I used automation for volume changes and have parts assigned in the fx mixer but literally I just fixed it, though I can't explain it. There was a vocal sample that when it was played it did the thing so I replaced it and now it's good. Weird.

Wow! I call that a miracle. 8-)
That is an interesting method you used to solve this problem.
The way you solved it, reminded me, of how I solved a strange problem in Lmms, a few years back.
Glad to see you got it working again. :)

If you or anyone else, have encountered any other, strange problems in Lmms, please feel free to post about it. :)
It would be of interest to know what:
*OS
*Lmms version
- But i t believe that this was some how global-automation that 'happend' and now it somehow 'unhappend' :p

Eh, I find stealthy automation highly unlikely. If the project remains silent until you load a new one this could very likely be caused by a misbehaving plugin (*cough* Calf Limiter *cough*)
This is kind of late but yes it felt kinda miraculous when it worked again. So the OS is Windows 7 and version 0.4.15. It was like a random limiter was placed on the track but I don't think that had used one anywhere at that point, not that I can remember anyway. Thanks for the feedback everyone.
