I still feel like track/bus groups, VCAs, and now ad-hoc groups are three different ways of doing roughly the same thing. Are there plans to unify them into a single concept, maybe?
(I know that especially VCAs are different here, but in the end, they are groups of groups if you squint hard enough, are they not?)
- PaulDavisThe1st 3y agoNo, VCAs are quite different from the other two. They represent an external entity (the VCA) that can be used to control other entities, and they are mixer (signal flow) related only (i.e. have no impact on editing). Persistent and quick groups are definitely related; we've already a few trenchant observations about what we've done with quick groups, and we will work on taking them into consideration as we refine how this works. But fundamentally, I see persistent groups and quick groups as orthogonal, and their main job is not to interfere (too much) with each other.
- runiq 3y agoI see, that's fair. Thanks a lot for Ardour, happy to be a sponsor! <3
