Grouping together groups?

Post by marra » Fri Aug 12, 2011 8:20 pm

Hey!

Is it possible grouping together groups? So I can premix a bunch of tracks before they hit the master channel - or is this something for the features wishlist?

Thanks!

In before "yo dawg I heard you like groups...."

Is there any technical reason why we couldn't group groups? It actually seems like it'd be useful, and I'm curious if there's a reason why grouping can only go one level deep. I haven't personally run into a lot of situations where it'd be useful, but I admit I'm curious.

same, for now i'm sub grouping drums and i'd like to then group all those together but alas I am multi-groupless.

Make a new track & route your groups to it. The new track becomes a fader (group) all groups routed to it. Repeat as necessary.
