Yes, once you go VCA, you never want to go back.

Exactly. Having volume (and pan, etc.) control grouping independent of bussing is a powerful tool that can handle lots of useful situations like the one mentioned above.platinumears wrote:The advantages of the VCA method is that the routing of the grouped tracks can be different. eg: you could assign the snare reverb return to the same VCA group as the rest of the drum mix, without needing to route it to the drum buss (which may have compression etc inserted).
Having a quick way to select and move all volumes at once in Tracktion is a good start in the right direction, though.
