Description

This plugin gives you the ability to AB (turn on/off) test multiple devices (effects & synths/instruments) across all tracks in a song. You do this by selecting a list of plugins that you want to test then clicking the A/B button to turn them all off or all on. This can be done in real time while the song plays.

IMPORTANT

You must clear plugins after a refresh

On large projects (60 + tracks, 100+ effects), clear and refresh may take a few seconds.

    What do you mean with "You must clear plugins after a refresh"

    Looks great and just works so far.
    While mixing, I spend my time assigning and de-assigning keyboard keys on various groups of plugins when I want to compare different options of processing.
    With this little device, I will save a lot of time.
    Thanks a lot !!!
    I didn't test it in the context of an heavy set, but if it doesn't add CPU load, it will be one the greatest utility M4L devices I use...

    @markusschloesser if you add tracks and need to refresh the plugin you're going to also have to clear the list/group you've created and re add the plugins to be tested. This is just a byproduct of how i programmed the logic for this thing and is not ideal :/

    @Calagan it seems pretty light weight as of now. It takes a bit of CPU to scan the project but that only lasts a second or 2 and it should be good after that. the actual turning on/off of the devices seems to be very responsive
