I want to see only certain instruments to work with. For example I want to work with “strings” section. So I want to hide every other folders and keep visible folders and tracks inside “==strings==” folder. That is, in this case, folders “Common template”, “VST midi”, “==strings==”, “==strings==/SF”, “==strings==/CSS”, “==strings==/Berlin” should stay visible. And midi tracks inside those too. Folders “==brass==”, “==woodwinds==”, “Group Tracks”, “Project Instruments” must be hidden.
Question: Is there a way to do this using project logical editor without plenty of action? How?
P.S. Also, if I apply “show only brass” after I applied “show only strings”, brass folder must be appeared, but others to be hidden and vide versa.
P.P.S. The only way I came up with is to “prefix” every track in own folder and rely on it. For example, for each midi tracks inside “==strings==” I need to write a prefix “|s|”, for “==brass==” - “|b|” etc. Disadvantage of the approach is that to prefix 1000 tracks is not quite easy. And messy. Every track will be contain unnecessary information. So I’m searching for a better, nicely and elegant approach. Is it possible to do?
I thought about that (about relying on color names). Inside my folders of “strings”, “brass” I have separation by library names which colorized too (in order to quickly orientate among them). Looks like you have to sacrifice something
Not really. As @Sub3OneDay points out you can make very complex selections this way. But the key is to come up with a naming scheme that lets you choose the characteristics which are important to you.
