Thanks Jeffrey! Im finding your videos super helpful, and i can completely relate with your background stories... id be embarrassed to show the sloppy mess of my earlier projects too! Thanks for sharing these helpful tips you've picked up along the way!
Thanks Jason. I haven't made a new video in awhile but you're kind words have motivated me to look at a couple more (How Versions work and ioStation pitfalls)... all based on mistakes I've made. Cheers.
how is this different from using groups and visibility, i keep all my buses up next to main, then use groups and visibility to show hide mixer channels, buses always stay up to the right
Great question. By "groups" I suspect you mean folders; grouping tracks is a different feature than folders, it allows changes on one track to be replicated on the others in the group. If I can ever get to a point where I get all my tracks mixed into buses and then can mix at the bus level without revisiting the tracks, then your suggestion would work fine. What happens to me, and I suspect others, is that while mixing at the bus level there's a need to revisit a track, even if it's it just to check settings. That results in scrolling back and forth between the tracks on the left and the buses on the right. For me, it's a lot easier to have the bus folders. Then, when mixing at the bus level I can have the folders closed, but if I need to quickly check a track I can open it right there from the bus channel, check or change as needed and reclose the folder. The downside I can imagine is if I want to see all my tracks and buses at the same time; then the buses would be intermingled with the tracks instead of all to the right. Anyway, your method is perfectly fine, but maybe give bus folders a try and see what you think.
@@jhughsPresonusStudioOneTips that makes sense, you can control visibility at the source while adjusting the individual track and then close it from the same spot. I use groups, on the left side, and uncheck everything except visibility, so buses always stay up next to main (buses holding most of the processing), and show/hide groups to show hide all the mixer channels and tracks simultaneously, I still have to keep going to the left to change group visibility but I don't have to scroll through all the tracks. bus folders are cool but I'd get mad confused with buses all scattered through the whole track list
Thanks! Nicely done.

Thank you Jefrey!Very nice explanations for Studio One that i hope will help me cause i mess it all!
That's okay. Making messes is part of the learning process. Hang in there.

@@shatteredsquare Cool, I'll give that a try. Thanks.
