Having a persistent group of tracks and/or busses has a number of pros,
|
||
|
|
such as being able to control faders of multiple tracks at once, at any
|
||
|
|
moment in time. However, Ardour also supports "quick" temporary groups.

Selecting multiple tracks or busses either in the Editor or in the Mixer
|
||
|
|
window allows treating those tracks and/or busses as a group as long as
|
||
|
|
the tracks/busses are selected. This means:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
Adjusting fader position in one track/bus will change faders' positions
|
||
|
|
of other selected tracks/busses by the same amount. The same applies
|
||
|
|
to input trim changes.
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
Toggling Solo, Mute, Rec-enable, Solo Safe, Solo Isolate, Monitoring
|
||
|
|
controls in one track/bus will toggle the same type of control in other
|
||
|
|
selected tracks/busses.
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
If one of the selected tracks/busses belongs to a persistent group,
|
||
|
|
selecting it will automatically all the other members of that persistent
|
||
|
|
group and affect respective controls there as well. This can be worked around
|
||
|
|
by opening group's setting and changing what controls are shared in the group.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
There are two cases where quick groups will not work as expected:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ol>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
When a change to a control in a selected track/bus comes from a hardware
|
||
|
|
control surface.
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>
|
||
|
|
When you use the mouse scroll wheel to adjust faders
|
||
|
|
(this is a temporary limitation).
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
</ol>
