Multi-lane tracks
.. simplifying / removing need for Routing

At the moment, we can have:
  • multiple clips on a track
  • overlapping
  • or arranged in lanes when overlapping
  • or Free Item Positioning Mode (FIPM)

I think that another display mode would be valuable: MULTI_LANE:



[The track is set to Multichannel metering and uses a bespoke Layout. And, yes, that big MIDI indicator really needs fixing ;)]

As an example: this could be used for (up to) 16 lanes for MIDI, completely avoiding all that palaver generating 16 "MIDI" tracks routing MIDI to this track. And making answering the perennial forum question much easier too. The only thing you may need is the usual multiple audio output tracks for the VSTi:

For audio it could be very handy too, for example, for arranging clips in lanes, with the FX essentially being bus FX, no need for Sends.


This cannot be done with "Show overlapping items in lanes" as there is no control over which clips go in which lane; and FIPM offers too much flexibility in positioning.
