Hi. Just testing and getting my head around M3 and developing a way of working with the many M3 satellite groups. As I go about setting up say a group of drums, adding busses, learning mxing etc, I find that once I have a drum mix I like, I'd like to be able to group lock them, without needing to do it for each track - up to 20-odd. I thought I could lock a group, but it seems to apply it to all subsequent groups?
The other thing I would find helpful, would be the ability to 'hide' groups and/or tracks from the M3 mixer, so as to 1. reduce the clutter so as to make track identification easier and 2. reduce the amount of scrolling that I need to do, in the event of arranging tracks and adding more. If there was an automative scroll function, then that would help and I can only move a track from one side of the mixer to the other, I then have to manually move over the track with the bottom scroll and then continue dragging the track.
Perhaps you might like to in addition to hiding tracks/groups, it could work to say select a group and make them thinner in the mix. I've seen this done in some DAWS. Irrespective, hiding might be easier and quicker to do?
I'm liking M3, it's a different way of working than I have established over the years but I'm liking the results, now that I'm figuring it out some more. It'd be great to get some more presets as well down the line. 😉
Thanks
