Hey Chuck, I read pretty much every single post here. OK, as clearly as you can, tell me precisely what is not available if one does not move the vertical splitter. I'm all for helping each other but I do think things need to be perfectly clear in order for us all to be on the same page.

Alternative way to get tracks selected with out a controller.

Hi Listers, You may find this interesting. I came across this when I was in a session the mix window had not had the tracks table vertical splitter moved to the right 30%. As long as the tracks are showing you can use control ; and or control shift ; to move the track selection down in the

Chuck, It's right in the menu: Edit Follows Track Selection or something to that effect, right beneath Link Edit Timeline. Slau On Mar 19, 2011, at 6:22 PM, Chuck Reichel wrote: Hi Listers, You may find this interesting. I came across this when I was in a session the mix window had not

Guys, this is how Pro Tools worked since version 5. How did you extend selections between multiple tracks before? I don't understand what the discovery is. This is not new, except if you simply didn't know it before but then it begs the question I asked above. Slau On Mar 19, 2011, at 6:30

Hey Slau What we have been looking for is a way to do multiple selection. The shift modifier, I am assuming, allows us to do this with out a control surface. HTH --FC On Mar 19, 2011, at 6:46 PM, Slau Halatyn wrote: Guys, this is how Pro Tools worked since version 5. How did you extend

Hi Frank, The command shift works fine when you have your tracks table spread out to the right by using the vertical splitter. When it is moved to the right with the vertical splitter dragging tracks and selection is very easy. Talk soon On Mar 19, 2011, at 6:53 PM, Frank Carmickle wrote:

Hi Slau, If your just getting into pro tools this is a sure way to check that you have made the correct selection! you can check the tracks table to make sure what you have selected! You know what they say! Measure twice and cut tracks once! LOL YTSMV On Mar 19, 2011, at 6:46 PM, Slau Halatyn

Hey guys, You just lost me on this one :) I'm still struggling with selecting a track among multiple ones. No need to tell me, going to figure it out like a pro tooler. Cheers Yuma

Chuck, the track table has nothing to do with extending the selection while the edit follows track selection. On Mar 19, 2011, at 7:41 PM, Chuck Reichel wrote: Hi Frank, The command shift works fine when you have your tracks table spread out to the right by using the vertical splitter.

Hi Yuma, Selecting tracks is unquestionably easiest with a control surface but, with the edit follows Track Selection checked under the Options menu (and it's not checked by default), one can move the insertion point up and down through the edit window and track selection will follow.

Hi Slau, Have you tried to drag and drop tracks to re order them in the new PT while in the tracks table? If you don't move the vertical splitter over to the right about 30% you can not drag or use command click to select meltable tracks. Of course you need sighted assistance to use the

I would hold down shift and hit the select buttons on the control surface. Also, this is my first time using Pro Tools with the keyboard focus mode. In my version of 5, these commands didn't exist. THey only existed in the HD version of 5, and the LE versions of 6 and above. So to me, it's

Hey Kevin, I'm about 99% sure that the extending of the insertion point with Control-Shift-semicolon has always been available in LE. The whole Edit selection following track selection is certainly new. Hmm, I have used HD so much more than LE so now I'm second guessing but, if it is new to
