Send groups to a subgroup

Post by vsukpadman » Tue Jun 08, 2010 11:41 am

Hi all ...

if I have several tracks already grouped into kicks, snrs hats etc, how do I then send all these groups to a new group track (say called drums) so I can have control over ALL of the drum groups at the same time.
Its something Im used to in Protools , but the option doesnt seem to exist in Live unless im missing it..tried shift clicking all the drum groups , then right click, but no grouping option is then available

any help appreciated

thanks

BP

Just create an audio track (name it Drum Master or something), and in each Groups' I/O selector assign the AUDIO TO to this newly created track. Then make sure Monitor is set to IN on the Drums Master track.

This is one of the beauties of Live's track-to-track routing that is so amazingly flexible.
