Should Ableton create an option to "Create a Mono Audio/Midi Channel"

"Create New Mono Track"

Be able to use busses to route channels. Similar to how Protools or even Logic use busses.

MAKE MONO AND STEREO AUDIO and MIDI TRACKS FOR ABLETON

Post by MBurns » Mon Jun 15, 2015 7:19 pm

I use Protools 11 a lot, but I use Ableton just as much. I think it would be a good idea if Ableton would make individual mono tracks so I know when I'm editing a mono track verses a stereo track. I know there is a mono plug-in but I still think it would be efficient if I had the option to "Create New Mono Midi Track" or "Create New Mono Audio Track" similar to how Cmd+T is make new audio track and Shift+Cmd+T is make new midi track.

It would be more of an organizational thing but I mix a lot too and I don't want to always be wondering if my track is mono or stereo.

Also I think Ableton should update the routing procedure in Ableton and create busses to choose from instead of routing channels.

What is gained by using a buss vs. a return track?

Actually, every track in Ableton is stereo, even if only a single track is displayed or you use Utility to set the track to mono. It would be a nice feature to create mono tracks at all. :lol:
