Group sends

[hans]

Would be nice if it was possible to adjust the send level on multiple tracks at the same time.

+1 - this would be really handy!!

You can do it already by grouping tracks

[hans]

I'm sorry to have requested this if this already exists, but i can't find how to do it. edekzgredek1997, can you perhaps explain how i do it? I have grouped two tracks and checked every group-box i can. Still not doing what i want.

It doesn't work that way for me??

Just send all tracks to a new track and send from there .. instant one fader volume control for all.. and you can insert effects on all sends too. EQ, Pre-delay, etc.

[hans]

Thanks for the tip, but that is not going to be efficient for me, since the tracks i want to adjust the send level on will always be changing. I want full freedom. I have been trying looking for scripts, but without any luck.

HeDa Track Inspector script can do it
but...is it so important? how many times do you need to adjust multiple sends at the same time? I find myself not needing to do it really. But it depends of course.

+1 I need this often. Should be available for both saved groups and temporary for sure. Adjust send levels in proportion.

Would be cool to have that by just selecting multiple tracks (as it's possible with track volume, mute, solo, panning). Changing a send volume should change all send volumes to the same receivetrack proportionally.

Back again asking for Grouping of Sends, Like PT or Cubase does it...... Please add this.

+1 This is a basic feature missing from Reaper.

Since it hasn't been the default maybe an option should be added to toggle multiple send select but imo it should be default behavior when multiple tracks are selected and sending to the same track and channels.

As monkey bars says, it should be default, or at least shift-drag to adjust selected tracks' common sends.

In the meantime you could send them all to an intermediary track and adjust the one send level there (or just the fader).

+1 for more clever ways to change sends on multiple tracks.

I mix dialogue. Every dialogue track has to to eight sends, and I often needto setup basic reverb send levels and unmute sends.

I use midi/osc actions, controlled by both absolute and relative midi knobs. The absolute midi knobs can do identical send volume levels. The relative midi knobs do relative changes.

These actions work on selected tracks.

But it could always be improved.

+1 - seems like a very basic omission - relative to other DAWS - in an otherwise comparatively sophisticated bit of software

How about link groups that you can switch on and off.

Or you can toggle it‘s use with a modifier when you change a level of a send.

I‘ve always been a fan of temporary linked controls on Harrison consoles, but even better would be link groups you predefine and can then toggle on and off at will.

Actions to toggle off 16 link groups ?


As for what can be linked, track volume, send levels, send mutes, plugin insert X. Then there‘s relative and absolute linking. And naming the link group. That could do it.

I‘d like that. I‘d do surround pans across dozens of tracks with ONE control source on just one track and all others would record the automation too.

+1 definitely yes it is a very basic omission !

[kickdust]

any chance we can see this in 2022 or maybe 2023 ??? I'm still amazed I can't group sends.
