i too would like to have the ability to recall a scene that only effects insert on/off state of all channels, auxes, groups, busses, & matrixes (waves IO is patched to these)
the only alternate thought i had would be a softkey to disable/enable the actual IO port (this could work if disabling the IO would cause the inserts to bypass due to NA signal path)
Having to go 2 screens deep in a typical scenario to be able to disable an insert makes using FX slots as insert (why burn a bus if you’re only using it on one channel) much less useful. Especially when just about everything else in the processing path has a hardware enable/disable button on the console.
It’d also be nice to have the same sort of enable/disable option for the Tube Stage preamp plugin as well.
I’d love this. Just had a show where the inserts I use on USB crashed…a panic button like this would be awesome to have.
I assume it would be done in a way that you can toggle an insert on and off on a single channel/bus/group/matrix, but I’d make do with that, since I mostly use inserts on groups, so I’d leave the first 4 softkeys for this for example, and then just press all 4 quickly when there is a problem.
