GROUPS: Working with Groups from
ProControl
One of the most powerful features of Pro Tools is its exten-
sive grouping capability. ProControl lets you take full ad-
vantage of this capability by providing a dedicated GROUPS
switch section, located just to the right of the main Fader
section. At the bottom of the DSP EDIT/ASSIGN section is
the CHANNEL/GROUP display, which provides visual feed-
back about groups and their channels.
The GROUPS section contains five Group switches—CRE-
ATE, ENABLE, EDIT, SELECT and SUSPEND. These switches
mimic Pro Tools Group menu commands, allowing you to
use ProControl to perform all the following Pro Tools
Group functions:
• Create new groups, and query current groups to see if
the selected channels are resident in any existing
groups.
• Enable and disable groups
• Edit groups by adding or removing channels (in tan-
dem with the CHANNEL MATRIX)
• Delete individual or all groups
• Select all channel strips of the members of a group or
groups (the same as clicking to the left of Group ID let-
ter in Pro Tools).
• Suspending all group activity
