Default Compact drum routing

Hi! I've been trying for a while to create a compact Superior Drummer-like plugins routing and layout - one master-folder with MIDI visible, so that it's very visual but collapsible as a whole.

I minimize my usage of stuff like track manager, or routing matrix because I feel that their UI is bulky, and interacting with these windows is only slowing down my workflow.

Therefore I came up with this very transparent and UI friendly routing. The only downside that I see is that you have to enable feedback routing from Project Settings for it to work.

SUPERIOR DRUMMER is a folder. OUT 1 - OUT 16 are children tracks.

I had to click a lot on these annoying pins but there we are.

Routing window of SUPERIOR DRUMMER track.

This is the routing window of "OUT 1" on my scheme.

Looks very neat!



This way, you can even use the SUPERIOR DRUMMER track as a master bus, just adding effects to its chain the usual way!

Hopefully, I've helped somebody with a similar struggle! I'm also looking for your input on whether this is safe performance/stability wise. I haven't noticed any CPU usage increase or audio issues.

Oh, nice! I've been making a folder that contains the separate drum channels, as well as a "drums midi" channel. It works, for it's an extra track for essentially no reason. It never occurred to me to simply start routing from 3/4 instead of 1/2 so that 1/2 would be free for the sum.

Thanks for the info!

Could not get this to work. As soon as I make the receive tracks children from the instrument track, audio stops.

EDIT: I had overlooked the fact that you had to enable feedback routing in project settings. I'm a little hesitant to keep this though.
