Mixer channels COMPACT VIEW with HIDE function
under review
Julien Jolly
My mixer and AudioUnit screen is a MESS. Once configured, it's sometimes hard to navigate quickly to what you need, especially, for exemple, if you use a lot of midiFX or audio buses. Loopy Pro should have a COMPACT VIEW with the ability to HIDE the buses you don't want to see once configured (this idea was inspired by a similar feature in Drambo).
I made some mockups to illustrate this:
- As you can see in picture 1, I have a lot of midiFX, so it's hard to focus on others things I want to tweak. But I could use the button in the top right corner to enable the compact view.
- When the COMPACT VIEW is activated, it shows only the buses I want to see (image 2).
- How? When I click on the title of a bus, I can HIDE or SHOW it in the compact view (see image 3).
And did you see this duplicate function ?! ;-)
- Additionally, in the system preferences, there could be some options to automatically hide certain types of buses or some others elements in the compact view (image 4).

On the upcoming version 2 you will be able to hide whatever channel you want,i am currently on the beta and the option to hide mixer channels has been implemented.

Yes! I'm still doing a lot of routing in AUM because the mixer view in LP gets crowded so fast. There are many ways this could be implemented. One idea: adapt the groups function for clips to mixer channels and let the user designate which channels are grouped together, give the channel group a name, and make actions to hide/show any group or groups.

Steve Bowman Yes I also did a mockup about groups some times ago in this post : https://roadmap.loopypro.com/feature-requests/p/group-mixer-channels-expand-collapse
Collapsable groups and hide channel function would be great
