Routing folder+VCA

[mgoorevich]

I really would appreciate if the routing folder would also have the VCA functionality.
It would be great if it would be possible to Spill Routing Folder on the D-Command like its possible with the VCA's. The Shift+F is not the same as it only lets to visualise tracks in folder.

You can spill the folder by click on screen and it will spill on the D Command. The Icon protocol is no longer developed, it's all gone to Eucon, so you won't ever get that function as an Icon shortcut.

Could you elaborate on this? Do you mean the folder members will show on an ICON console once the folder is opened, or is there an actual "spill" type of function where it'll spill its members across the console when clicked?

Sorry Ryan, misleading term I used, what I mean is the D Command will reflect what is happening on screen, if you open a folder the tracks will show on the D Command

Drats!

I guess if I have a "bank to selected track" type of option, or get in the habit of ctrl shift clicking the folder track as I shift f it, it'll act the same.

Can't give up my D-Command no matter how cool EuControl is looking, it's just too solid!

I think its more a matter of functionality. The routing folder track has a visual grouping, editing abilities plus the full functionality of the Aux track (up to Atmos config) incl volume, solo and mute functions. The VCA is only limited to the physical grouping without any routing (even less than the basic folder track can do).
While I am aware that the developing and support for the icons is at the EOL, I don't think it is different on Eucon's.
My point that it would be great to have a track so called "VCA Routing Folder".
