This may be just wishful thinking, but is there a command that allows me, while I have a bunch of tracks selected that I want to bus together, to create an aux track and automatically have those selected tracks bussed into the new aux track? It'd be an enormous time saver instead of creating an aux track, setting its input, then setting the outputs of the tracks I want routed into it. 3 steps would become 1.
Just curious....

Re: Automatic bussing?
Maybe that's a good suggestion for the future. Still, you know the shortcut to assign the input and/or output to multiple tracks at once right? That's still not too bad.

It's a drag that a new bundle can't be added from that window though.James Steele wrote: Still, you know the shortcut to assign the input and/or output to multiple tracks at once right? That's still not too bad.

I don't know this shortcut and a search didn't find it. Can you point me to it, please?
Many Thanks

Re: Automatic bussing?
Try this to bring it down to 2 steps
Highlight your tracks:
from any of these tracks select from output dropdown menu - New Aux Track Via New Stereo Bundle - this creates a new Aux with input assigned.
Then go to Audio Assignments to set output for all tracks selected.
Not so bad - but I get that it would be nice if there was a key combo to choose New Aux Track Via New Stereo Bundle for all selected tracks
Cheers
