Hello,

Is it possible to solo more than one track at a time within Live? If so, how? At present, with my default settings, I can only solo one track at a time. I don't see anything in Preferences that gives me the option either.

Many thanks.

Hold ctrl (or maybe option, I don't know Mac commands), or I think you can also hold shift to highlight/select multiple channels and when pressing solo, it'll solo them all.

If there is an option, it'll start with the word 'exclusive'

Edit: in Preferences it is in the Record/Warp/Launch tab. There are buttons for both Exclusive Arm and Solo.

Ahh! Thank you so much! Found it in Preferences per your instructions. It works now.

Many thanks!!!

yeah command click for multiple soloing

I've wondered that forever!!! Began to think it wasn't possible, would have never thought to have looked in preferences. You sir are a lifesaver. Thank you!

Preferences > Record/Warp/Launch > Exclusive > Solo (grey)

This sequence will remove Solo as an exclusive trigger & therefore allow multiple tracks to solo at once.
