Live 12 Mixer in Arrange View

Post by H20nly » Tue Nov 14, 2023 7:08 pm

Just a quick question on this feature…

In the limited Live 12 shots I’ve seen, I’ve not seen any pics of the Sends controls (knobs) when Mixer is open in Arrange View. Anyone know if we will be able to control Sends to Return tracks from Arrange?

It's the same Mixer as in Session, so yes.
"The same", but they have independent controls over what is shown or not (in/out; sends etc...), though :wink:

Awesome!

The one little annoying workflow thing I come across *frequently* is having to toggle views to change a track’s Send amount to my reverb and/or delay Returns. Extra annoying when dealing with multiple vocal takes. Won’t miss it.

Also holding the Tab key momentarily allows you to switch views to momentarily see/adjust something in the other view.

That is a welcome improvement. Same behaviour with many of the tools like the Pen mode (to write notes or automations) etc

For sure. Tab is my current method, but when you have 4, 8, 24 vocal takes to run through… reaching for Tab is less than ideal.

I recently became a bus whore ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I also have a question.

In arranger, when you click on a mixer channel, does it automatically bring the track you selected to the view ?

Thanx

Nice ! So I guess the other way is also the case... if you select a track in the arranger which you can't see the channel in the mixer it will bring it into the field of view automatically... ?
