    Hi,

    I loving VE Pro for speed in changing projects, but not happy about not being able to solo/mute tracks. And my MCU pro doesn't show those tracks either for selecting.

    I've got 1 instance of VE Pro open through a multi timbral instrument with 8 tracks. Those could be just midi tracks I believe, but I leave them as instrument tracks, all pointing towards the multi. Soloing 1 solos all of them. Is there a way around this? And is there a way for my controller to display all these tracks for selecting?

    Thanks in advance

    I open VE Pro as a multi-output and bring the audio for the sounds up on auxes. The auxes show up on my Mackie Control and can easily be muted, soloed, or automated.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your answer! That's what you say to do in your dandy new book that I have in front of me, but I didn't understand the purpose of the auxes other than the automation question.

    So you creat the auxes so as to be able to then creat arrange tracks and have them on a controller? Is that how you work? Unfortunately I end up with 2 tracks per instrument on the arrange page (1 with the midi data and 1 with the return).

    You also give the tip (page 210) about saving a channel strip setting. Couldn't all the aux's and other be saving in a folder and recalled in a mega channel strip?

    All best

    Nio, I create the auxes to have discrete cc7 and pan automation, add plug-in FX only to those sounds I want to have them, etc. And yes, you win d up with 2 tracks but there are two good solutions: Logic's Hide feature, which allows you to hide either/or the auxes or the MIDI tracks as you need to and/or packing all the Midi tracks and/or all the auxes into folders. There seems to be an undefined ceiling on how big a Logic Channel Strip setting can be.

    Can you address the 8 virtual faders of VI PRo to the 8 hardware faders of the Mackie Control Universal Pro,

    or are they just for volume setting?
