CLEAR ALL SOLO shortcut
 
Sorry guys, I know we're all on the 12.8 highs and lows, but as a full time mixer, and a non-icon user I think we're LONG OVERDUE for the clear ALL solos shortcut.
Anyone wants to write a script for that?!

There is one: hold option while pressing a solo button

For all people who've mixed on real consoles and on an icon- that's not what I'm talking about. A keyboard shortcut that doesn't require moving the mouse.

agreed there should be a shortcut for that.....however.

Since I got my D-Cmnd i haven't needed it :D

prior to my D-Cmnd I used keyboard maestro and just created a macro and assigned F15 (iirc) to do that.

It worked like a charm.

Not sure if I totally get what you need but when you solo tracks a little yellowish S highlights under the time window. If you click that S all solos are shut off.

It's just macro software, simple but can be very powerful

It is OSX only, but there are PC equivalents

If you have an iPad running PT|Control (which I highly recommend - if only for the soft keys alone) you can assign a shortcut that does this…

The iPad/PT|Control is a great addition to the keyboard and mouse. If you don't have an iPad you can pick and old iPad2 dirt cheap these days.
