Delete Selected Groups
This command al-
lows you to permanently remove a group
from the Groups List. You must first select
a Group Name in the Groups List to do
this.
Enabling Grouping
Editing operations are not applied to mem-
bers of a group that are hidden with the
Show/Hide Tracks List. Mix operations
(with the exception of Record-enable) are
applied to hidden tracks.
Pro Tools allows you to create separate
groups for editing and mixing. You set this
option when you use the New Group com-
mand. Groups that apply to both editing
and mixing can be decoupled.
To enable a group:
■ In the Groups List, click the name of the
group you want to enable. The group name
is highlighted to indicate that it is enabled.
To enable additional groups, click their
names in the Groups List. It is not neces-
sary to Shift-click to enable or disable mul-
tiple groups.
Moving a fader of a group member will
cause all other group members to move rel-
ative to it. If a fader belongs to multiple
groups, and the groups conflict when fad-
ers are moved, the fader will follow the top-
most or “parent” group that it belongs to.
To disable a group:
■ In the Groups List, click the name of the
group you want to disable. The group name
is unhighlighted to indicate that it is not
enabled.
Keyboard Selection of Groups
If the Groups List Key focus is enabled, you
can type a Group ID letter and Pro Tools
will automatically enable that group.
To enable and use the Groups List Key focus:
1 Click the a-z button in upper right of the
Groups List.
2 Type Group ID letter (a-z) of the region to
automatically enable it.
