Muting any tracks with a single switch

Hi,
Ok, as I said in my first post, I wanted to check if it was the simpler option.
I'm far from mastering all Usine modules and tricks so I prefer asking before building

As Woodslanding says; the Mixer Track Output doesn't use much CPU. In fact I think that if not all, then most of the modules controlling some part of Usine's interface use almost no extra power at all. They're not doing any extra processing, they're just a means to control the processing that's already taking place.

why do you not want a mixer out per track? I have my WKP set up that way, and it doesn't seem to use much CPU....

Hi Bsork,

connected to separate mixer out modules

mmmm... it still means a MixerOut per track or I miss something ?

An idea that won't "mute any track with any pedal switch", but should be easy to implement:

Have as many switches as you have tracks you want to control - these should be stored in the Conductor. Add another "master" switch with MidiLearn - whether this should be stored in the Conductor depends.

Use the track switches together with the master and some logical modules connected to separate mixer out modules. The logic depends on whether you like to see the different switches as mute on or off.

If you need to send your 7 tracks in 7 separate hardware output to the sound engineer, it is not a good solution because in my proposition the 7 tracks are route to the same hardware stereo output ...

Hi cmodica.
If I understand well your idea, the tracks are mixed together. The trouble is I send separate tracks to the sound engineer. Or I miss something ?
Thanks for your advice

Perhaps you can try with 2 different outpout master. You send your 7 tracks to OUT 1 and add a mute on the OUT 1 master patch. The others traks are send to OUT 2 with no mute. And you can send the OUT 2 to the same hardware output of your sound card to use only one monitoring.

I think the output tracks configuration should be store in a conductor ... i didn't test but you can try.

Hi guys
My final goal is to remote the mutes with my pedal board, but i'd like to change the behaviour according to the conductor scenes (mute any track with any pedal switch). So I'm not sure midi learns are a good way.
I don't mind using multiple mixer out modules, I was asking to be sure there's not something more suitable.
Thanks for your advices !

and what about using the same key or midi learn for all tracks...?

You can also use a volume module. But you will have also to add a module per track.

Perhaps another way would be to link your switch to a "create midi" module (one per track) linked to one "send midi to usine" module, and make midi learn on each mixer track, but i'm not sure it would lighter on cpu...

Hi,
I'd like to mute 7 tracks with a single switch (and later choose any tracks). I've thought about using a mixer out module, but it means I must add a module per track ? Is it the only option ?
Thanks
