If I want all Sends to be at -16 (or whatever), I do not see how to do it all.
 
Hello,

I have 40 audio tracks and I want to give them the same send, so I take them all and I do ALT by assigning my Send. But if I want all Sends to be at -16 (or whatever), I do not see how to do it all. There is something (instead of copying one by one)?

(PT Vanilla)

Option-Shift brings them all to unity, but don't know about -16

Group the tracks.
Send level is one of the options for group attributes.
Change level on one send.
Disable/remove group. (or you can keep them permanently grouped only for that send level)

Oh yes, didn't think of that. And if I remember it correctly, while they are grouped you can do individual movements by holding command while dragging

Good idea, thank you. I also managed by making a track preset with Send at -16, then integrating it where I want with Shif-Alt. But your idea is better.

Thank you Freak. That makes me think: there is something to edit individually, exceptionally, a track that is in a group (but without unbundling-group)?

The same trick goes for everything

JFreak was saying "command key" is the modifier (on Mac) to adjust an individual track part of a group.

On your system which is Windows, to individually adjust a grouped track hold down the Ctrl key while modifying it.

Sorry about that, I always assume Mac :facepalm:

Another way to get a -16 volume is to add a master for that send and lower the master to -16(with all the sends at -0). Ultimately, session templates made with this in place is the way to go. My band tracking template has 6 stereo headphone mixes that are so well-dialed from the startup, that I rarely spend more than a minute on headphone tweaks.
