Master track's default position?

Post by Anorax »

Should the master track automatically default to the bottom, or is it intended to be moved around? I only ask because if you add the master track, it appears at the bottom, but you can add tracks after it. You can then remove and re-add the master track, and it again appears at the bottom instead of remembering its past position.

I guess the question is this currently a appreciable default behavior, or is there some other preferable behavior?

Not adding this to the bug tracker because I don't know if it's really a bug or not, and I'm more or less looking for input on what kind of preferred behavior users should expect.

Hi,

Good question! People might like the flexibility of putting the master track anywhere, I suppose.

FWIW: I like the Master Track always on the bottom.

Hi,

I suppose that could be a feature request: sink the master track to the bottom!

I only occasionally enable it in the arranger view, but personally I would vote for a default that opens it on the bottom when enabled, but retaining the ability to re-locate it where one wishes.

*though I cant imagine wanting it anywhere else..... But it could happen! 8)

But on the other hand, sub mixes and sends should open immediately below a selected track IMO.

I like and agree with this. :D
