This is probably really basic and I should've read the manual months ago....
When mixing I quite often end up turning things up and then a bunch of tracks end up too hot and hitting the red all the time. So I'd click each fader in the console view and use the mouse wheel to turn 'em all down some.
Then I realised you could make a group, so I'd add everything to a group , and turn 'em down as a group then ungroup them all...which was better...but still a bit of a PITA
I was wondering what the little icon in the Console view was that look a bit like this [-] just under the track name.
Well damn me if it ain't a quick group button..so I hold down the Ctrl button , click the first track - keep the mouse and the Ctrl button pressed and voila...I can glide across each tracks quickgroup button and select them as I pass over...saved me so much time
Now when somethings peakin' I can just do that and adjust them all really quickly.
I can't believe I never knew about it

We never finish a mix... we simply abandon them.
