The <dfn>Goups List</dfn> allows to quickly manage the <a href="@@the-track-and-bus-group-list">groups</a>
of the session, and make use of them.
</p>
<p>
Each group has a <kbd class="option">Show</kbd> checkbox to quickly toggle their visibility. Clicking an already
selected group allows to rename it.
</p>
<p>
The context menu, reached by <kbd class="mouse">right</kbd> clicking a group,
allows for multiple mixing actions:

<li><kbd class="menu">Soloed&hellip;</kbd> to create a group of all the soloed tracks</li>

</ul></td></tr>

<tr><th>Enable All Groups</th><td>Enable all the groups, i.e. their selected properties are synchronized.</td></tr>
<tr><th>Disable All Groups</th><td>Disable all the groups, i.e. changing a property in a track won't affect the others.</td></tr>
