Every project over a couple of lines long will have bugs. Some even have that little bug that just causes you no end of misery trying to fix. AllDay DJ 2 had one of these. The odd bit is it's a bug in a part of the system very few people use so didn't get reported until recently.
So the bug itself causing a lot of misery. Well, AllDay DJ ducks audio when sweepers or voice tracks are played over intros and outros to tracks. However, if the sweeper finished before the end of the outro it never faded back up again!
This made it sound awful when a customer was using the feature for an automated weather forecast. How? The intro is played then ducks down for the forecast to return to full volume for the sponsor line. If it doesn't fade back up - you've got issues!
After a while going round in circles trying to hunt down the bug, the fix ended up being a two-liner! Go figure, eh!
