hi,i have some tracks routed to a group channel.
say i want to solo one of the tracks that is routed to the group i have to solo the group track also.
is there any way of when i click on the group track that only the track i want on solo is on,instead of them all soloing,and having to mute them.
hope this makes sense! prob dosent tho.
And how should Cubase know, which track exactly out of several you would like to have soloed…?
And what exactly is the problem with simply soloing the track you want soloed, instead of soloing the group…?
if i solo the track i want soloed i cant hear it untill i solo the group track,and when i do that all the tracks that are routed to the group also become soloed.
in preference / VST / Tick : “group channel…” sorry mine is in french
now if you solo one track assigned to a group the group gonna be in solo mode too !
The preference is about muting source channels when muting the group. Soloing a source channel should normally always solo the group (or bus) it is routed to automatically, nor preference for that IIRC.
yeah, by default I think solo will solo the group as long as its routed, I don’t think that’s the case for sends though. That’s why I asked how he had it configured.
IIRC, it is the case for sends also. Track routed to master out, with a send to an FX- (or group-)track will solo the FX-Track also when soloing the sending track (I think).
No, I think it mutes the target of the send if you have a send to the group and the output routed to somewhere else. I’m not quite sure, but I know it works the way it should by default. In other words solo of a first order track enables solo on any downstream track that is required to monitor that track. By default sends destination are muted so that stray audio is not accidentally added to the solo output. At least I think that’s what happens. I just take it for granted.
EDIT: Ah, you are correct on FX tracks though. But, I confirmed not for Group tracks.
Maybe I think he means that when he solos the audio track, he cannot hear it because the group it is routed to becomes muted. So he has to then click solo on the group as well. I have experienced this from time to time in C5.
