i hope i can make this clear, heres an example.

if i have 3 soft synths (predator, sylenth and M1 for example) . say they all play the same midi notes but on their 3 different tracks. i group all 3 tracks and treat them as one sound. NOW the combined sound is what i like and would like to use as ONE preset next time i open up a session. is there a way of combining and controling all 3 synths together acting as one????

love. j

Just drag the group you just created into your instruments library and save it as an instrument rack and give it some cool name. Next time you open a new session and you need this combined synth, just double click it or drag it onto an empty miditrack...

If you want it every time you start a new project, you can save it in your template, so it will appear when you start it up.

To control it as 1 synth, you can map certain parameters to macrocontrols in the same group! But I recommend you read the manual on this...

There is also ClyphX, and maybe you could look into Kore, even though it is discontinued.

ok im not sure if you understood me correct. im talking about 3 different tracks with different synths all being able to be played as one. sorry.

i want to be able to control all 3 synths at same time with so ig i play a G on my midi keyboard it will play a G on all 3 synths (on all 3 tracks) at the same time. preferably also writing midi on all 3 tracks at same time if i was to record and play...

i guess the easiste way to do this would be to be able to put 3 synths on the same midi track and play them all together btu as far as i know you cant do that in ableton right???

Open a blank instrument rack
Drag synth into chain area and create a chain for each one
Rename and save the rack

You will have a rack where all 3 synths can be played with one midi track

or you could just change the input of each synth track to receive the same midi track
