Default S1 layouts with more tracks than faders?

New to the S1 and Dock here.

Is there any way to create a track layout that includes more tracks than physical faders, and just bank through it?

For instance, if I have two S1's but I have 48 SFX tracks in my session, can I create a single layout with all 48 tracks in it and just bank thru them?

It doesn't appear so, but I really hope there is some work-around! Thanks for any replies.

Simplest solution is to assign those tracks to a VCA, and simply spill the VCA rather than using a Layout. I have a Layout for all of my VCA’s, to make spilling quick.

Using the tracks page filtered to show only VCA's is another great way to spill them.

Good point J R. I’m running an S3, but if you’ve got a tablet on the S1, it’s brilliant for that.

Folder tracks.

Same thing -- spill

I wish Eddy would add this to the S1 feature update. You should be able to have 32 faders (max S1 config) in a layout no matter how many S1s you have. Would make compatibility with S6 better too.

This is on the list, but I do not have a date. We did this on S6 and its quite complicated code.

Agreed, +1, this would be good.

I'm currently trying to find a way to make the S1 show only audio tracks, but if there are more than 8 I can't do this via layouts (or can I?)
