Creating multitrack-mute points

Allure wrote on 7/11/2014, 5:39 AM
Is there a way to do the following:

Have three separate audio tracks (positioned directly one above the other) and rather than place a marker and then navigate to each audio track in turn to create a mute point (twice -- once for mute point in and then again for mute point out), I'm wondering if it's possible to create all the mute points in at the same time (& then all mute points out) in a similar way that it's possible to split multiple tracks at the same time.

It is possible with scripts, but safeguards against all rakes lying around envelope points on arbitrary number of tracks could be tedious.

Could this be a solution ... highlight all the relevant audio tracks, split the tracks at the desired in and out points, then highlight the middle tracks and either mute them via back clicking, or drag down to zero the volume envelopes.

Thanks guys - Dexcon, what are you meaning by 'back-clicking'
Warper, what are rakes.

Why not place the three tracks under one bus and mute the bus?
Using the bus envelope.

There's no one-mouse click that's going to do for you though. (everyone wants instant gratification these days </rant>

Automotive and landscaping.. but not audio.

Sorry ... by back-clicking, I meant using the right-click on your mouse - assuming the mouse is set up for a righty handed operation ... or vice versa for LH operation.

@Allure

Are you asking about fade-in/fade-out of audio?

If so, just select all three tracks and drag in the top corner at each end of one track - all the other two will have the same fade-in/fade-out applied.
