You assign a VCA Master to a regular Pro Tools Group, in the Group dialog, and it can control Mute and Solo functions as well as Volume and Pan. But unlike a traditional VCA Master, the faders on the Grouped tracks assigned to it also move (proportionally), so you always have a visual of the individual track levels. A VCA Master track doesn’t pass audio-it works kind of like a traditional console VCA Fader, acting as a Group master control, without having to bus the tracks in the Group through a subgroup Aux. This is an alternative to Pro Tools’ traditional approach to Grouping tracks. Standard-edition Pro Tools users can now also avail themselves of VCA Master tracks. This can be done for multiple selected tracks at once, thanks to an option at the bottom of the Copy to Send dialog box. Fig 3 New AFL and PFL Solo options are added to the standard Solo-In-Place Copy to SendĪdditional conveniences include the Copy to Send command, which lets you quickly duplicate both static mix data (Volume/Pan/Mute) and dynamic Automation data in the main Track to a Send, which can come in handy when, say, setting up independent headphone mixes that need to mirror the main track.
