Avid Pro Tools Folder Tracks

[@AudioSorcerer]

Who else is super excited about folder tracks!? Comment and show your love!

[@vicowlsmokebgg8882]

I used a lot on reaper, when I came to protools I get really lost....

[@kekojones8431]

I'm so glad to have found this video! Thank you!!

[@AudioSorcerer]

Glad I could help you! 🤘🤘🤘

[@wellrod]

Nicely done Dan! This feature will definitely help manage those unruly 70+ track mix sessions! You may already be aware of this routing shortcut, but I noticed you re-routing tracks to Aux's or Folders one at a time (time-consuming if re-routing a ton of tracks). You can reassign the outputs of multiple tracks in a single click by 1) selecting all the tracks you wish to re-route, 2) Option-Shift clicking one of them, 3) the selected track(s) to your desired destination Aux or Folder. The output assignments of all selected tracks will all go to the same destination. Great for a whole kit of drums, or stacks of BGVs, etc.. Select them all, Option-Shift-click one of them, and point that toward your desired Aux or Folder. Done :)

That's what I'm here for! 👍

Dan! You are the best reviewer/ teacher on Pro Tools that I've seen. Very thorough and at the same time the pace at which you show everything and teach everything is slow enough to be able to follow you without having to repeat it three or four times and at the same time not too slow. All while highlighting the important points. Thanks so much and keep up the great work

[@AudioSorcerer]

Thanks Jack! I really enjoying making this content for you guys. Let me know if you want me to make a video on any specific topic. 👍🤘

[@cage9]

Can't believe I haven't been using this!!! Insanity. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@AudioSorcerer]

Happy to help!

[@echoheadband]

Great vid, thanks!

[@AudioSorcerer]

No problem! 🤘🤘🤘

[@emeraldescape8710]

Dude! Probably the best folders tutorials on KZbin. All these other reviews I've seen on KZbin don't show it from the mixing window and I think its easier to explain from that view than from the editing window. I can't wait to update soon to incorporate this into my workflow! 🤘

[@AudioSorcerer]

Thanks man! I'm glad you like it. I have been using folder tracks constantly since they came out and they help so much.

[@allengoyne]

it's nice that Pro Tools finally caught up with a feature REAPER has had since at least 2016.

[@allengoyne]

by the way, REAPER doesn't make you route tracks into the folder, that is kind of annoying that protools does, especially since there is already a basic folder function that doesn't make you route in. I don't understand the logic behind this.

[@davidhageage1942]

Aw, I have PT 10 at the studio, and the PT 2018. Darn it, it would help me, I use sometimes 60 track's

[@Nash4Nashville]

Wow Cakewalk had track folders 20 years ago. One of two features I was missing dearly since switching to PT. Good job!

[@AudioSorcerer]

I know right!? I actually started with Cakewalk back in the day to.

[@SuperLevelone]

Thanks

[@AudioSorcerer]

No problem man! 👍

[@GeeksPlayOfficial]

Great tutorial. Also why do you use pre-master as well as master track?

[@AudioSorcerer]

Thanks so much! I do all my bus processing on a premaster Aux track. I like doing it that way because an aux tracks insert and fader are in a different order than the master track. On a master track, the fader comes first and then the inserts.

[@GeeksPlayOfficial]

@@AudioSorcerer Thanks this is very helpful . cheers

[@davidrotimi]

quick one, how'd you get that unique transport window at the bottom of your screen??

[@AudioSorcerer]

That is the Slate Raven software. You have to buy the touch screens to get that software. amzn.to/3vBG6UG

Thanks for checking out the video!

15 yrs later. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@AudioSorcerer]

Ain't that the truth!

[@brentpaul]

The folder feature or the pace of this video?

[@bluematrix5001]

How is the compatibility of the Folders with Raven??

[@AudioSorcerer]

So far I can't find a way to expand or close the folder tracks in the mix window. I have to do it from the edit window. The faders do realign to match the folder track so at least that's good. I'm going to do a little more digging on this.

[@bluematrix5001]

@@AudioSorcerer I think there is now way now to do it...and who knows if will be.... as that is a totally different game..... maybe is the end of Raven Pro Tools compatibility?.... do you knows if Raven emulate other Daws Track Folders>

[@decrink]

What is that panel at the bottom of your PT window?

[@AudioSorcerer]

That's my Slate Raven.
