methods that are destructive make me nervous. I know I am quite capable of getting a phone call, forgetting to undo, and then being pissed later...platinumears wrote:I'm just going to throw in a couple of suggestions here regarding trying out different arrangments:
1. Tracktion has very comprehensive undo facilities: try deleting the clips in question, in the knowledge that <CNTRL>+Z will bring them back if you don't like the result.

That is useful, and it is something I was not aware of as far as stretching a bunch of clips at once goes, but it doesn't seem to solve the whole "overlapping clips/making a huge mess" problem, unless I'm missing something.Tingle wrote:don't you just alt-drag the top right arrow on a clip?

If I expected Tracktion to compensate for the deficiencies in my memory, this whole forum would be nothing but my feature requests..pdxindy wrote: methods that are destructive make me nervous. I know I am quite capable of getting a phone call, forgetting to undo, and then being pissed later...

"what you want to do is have a 'hide the tracks that feed into a group track' button in the control panel for a selected group track. That way you have no new features at all. get it?"
This idea would pretty much solve the folder track and lock track height FR.

That's probably the best approach.jtxx000 wrote:how about if solo is shift clicked then it only solos itself, otherwise it solos all subtracks as well...

yes this idea has the added bonus of having the solo group track working at long last (go on, go on, go on)

but you then have to remember what it's initial setting was. there would ideally be a mute button that can do the reduction for you, then bring it back to it's previous level when unmuted - it could have been on anything before you muted it.
Kick, punch, it's all in the mind.

another workaround for a heavy muting session? open a new track, mute it and shift drag the clips you want muted onto it. shift clicking gets you Multiple, non-sequencial tracks. Pull them back up as you need them. Or copy the entire track, mute the original and delete to your heart's content.
Has anyone said "the point is mute" yet?
