shortcut to assign same bus outs to several selected tracks?

[rinky]

Hello,

I was wondering if ya'll had a shortcut command to bus several (only to the selected) tracks to the same bus assignment. Like if I wanted to assign bus outputs 1 and 2 to several tracks without affecting the unselected tracks? Not the global "option select" command that affects all the tracks. It's so time-consuming to bus several tracks to the same bus output one by one. Thanks in advance!

yep: just press shift+option before you select the desired bus...

Dang! You just saved me tons of time now and when I retire from this business!!! I thought I tried all the key combos but apparently this was not the case. Thanks again, Mr. Lewis!

Here's another RTFM tip:

add COMMAND to option-shift and all selected tracks will now SEQUENTIALLY be assigned to the next input or output... for example, if you have 16 mono tracks and all 16 are selected and you want to assign the outputs of all 16 tracks to busses 1 to 16: option-shift-command-select output bus 1. Now, all busses are assigned from 1-16. This also works for midi tracks -- let's say you're building up a multi-timbral 16-midi-channel performance... there you go. All 16 midi tracks are now assigned from 1-16. Just hold down option-shift-command.

It's all in the manual. Has been for many, many years. This is not "hidden knowledge".
