| Summary | 0006654: Combining / splitting single/multiple tracks into single / multiple track | ||||
| Description | Could be a good feature like in ProTools: 1. Select regions on N mono tracks and drag to N-channel track. Each track becomes an Nth single channel of N-channel track (combined). 2. Select region of N-channel track and drag to the mono track. Region becomes separated into N mono regions and placed into selected track and N-1 following tracks. Benefits: recude number of busses needed to combine single tracks into N-track bus. Additional: to prevent from unexpected split/combine when dragging regions, this feature could be activated with Drag + Alt/Ctrl key or something else. | ||||

All modifier key combinations for drag are already in use. So you'd need to propose some that should used for this and why this is more important than their existing uses. It could certainly be convenient\, but it does need to be clearly distinguishable from "drag N regions to N tracks". |

Another idea how to implement it in interface: add additional item to track's popup menu called 'Combine tracks' or something else understandable. This will enable/disable special reaction of the track when regions are dragged to it. When active, then all dragged together regions are combined into one N-track region. When not active, then usual behaviour as in previous releases. |
