Grouping
Grouping, grouping allows you to organize and manage multiple tracks together, streamlining your workflow and facilitating creative control over related elements. We're going to talk about summing stacks, folder stacks and group processing and editing track stacks, summing stacks route the outputs of multiple tracks into a single unified track. This is useful for grouping related instruments or sections such as drums or backing vocals to create a swimming stack. Select the track you want to include, then choose create stack from the menu. So for this example, let's select the different drum tracks. So the kick snare and high hats and let's create a stack for these. You can adjust the volume, pan solo and mute of the entire stack as if it were a single track. Swimming stacks also allows you to apply effects and processing to multiple tracks simultaneously. This is useful for adding cohesion to related elements or applying global effects to a section of your project to apply group proces...
sing insert effects on the summing stack itself affecting all tracks within the group. So for this summing stack, let's add an overdrive effect. So let's play this back now and I'll adjust the drive setting for the overdrive effect and you'll be able to hear that affects all of the drums. So the kick snare and the high hats, let's now flatten this track stack to remove it. We can do this by tapping and holding on the track stack and selecting flatten stack. Let's now have a look at folder stacks, folder stacks organized tracks hierarchically within a folder like structure. This is helpful for managing complex arrangements or sections of your project to create a folder stack. Select the tracks you want to include, then choose create folder stack from the menu. You can collapse or expand the folder stack to simplify your workspace. The folder stack only allows you to control the volume for all the group tracks but does not reroute the outputs of those tracks. You cannot add effects or inserts to a folder stack group editing enables you to make collective adjustments to multiple tracks at once. This includes volume pan and other parameters. For example, you can adjust the volume of all drum tracks in the summing stack simultaneously by adjusting the group tracks volume fader. This speeds up the editing process and ensures consistency across related elements. You can add tracks to a group by going to the group's tab in the mixer and assigning all the relevant tracks to the same group. So for this example, let's rename this drums grouping helps you maintain a tidy and organized project, especially in complex arrangements with numerous tracks it streamlines your workflow by allowing you to control multiple tracks collectively reducing the need for repetitive adjustments. Group processing also ensures that related elements share common effects and processing, enhancing cohesion and unity in your mix. A few practical uses for grouping include drums, you can group together individual drum tracks into a summing stack for cohesive processing and editing. Another example might be organizing backing vocals into a summing stack for easy management and processing. OK. So that's the end of this section. In this section, we've learnt how to harness the power of effects processing and grouping to elevate your mixes to the next level. Keep exploring and experimenting and stay tuned for the next lesson. So thanks for watching and I'll see you there.
