How did I do this ???

Post by JSmith1234567 »

At some point, I put all the tracks in my templates into seven discrete track groups.

I can enable and disable the groups from the track groups window's on-off buttons.

At some point, I managed to create seven (MIDI?) sort-of-master tracks in the tracks window that let me play-enable/unable each track group.

What I can't remember is how I created these play-enable/unable master tracks in the tracks window?

I've been scratching my head about this one?

Thanks!

Care to share? It might be helpful to someone in the future.

Sure!

Just add the play-enable dummy group-track to the matching group in the groups window, and now that track will turn on and off the entire group when the group in enabled.

Easier to do it from one button at the top of the tracks window than scrolling down to find a brass track, for instance, to enable/disable that whole group.
