Overview

Name | Version: Futility II 2.0
Author: Crampe
Device Type: Audio Effect
Description: With Futility you can (un)solo, (un)mute, (un)arm, (un)collapse the currently selected track, with custom key (and/or midi) shortcuts.
Details, video demo and free download in the link below.

Update: Now with version II, you can zoom/unzoom your arrangement horizontally (if like Forge you prefer to use the R and T keys like in PT). And you can also assign keys/midi to zoom/unzoom your tracks vertically (this needs at least Live 9.1.3).

Great!!!
This is what I had been looking for!
Thank!
excellent, thank you !
hi,
The collapse button only collapses the track it's on rather than the selected track.
(max 7)
sorry my mistake, it happened because I had assigned a shortcut to the device accidentally and it was the same as the collapse button shortcut
Hey man, I know you're busy with all your other dope devices, but I just discovered that this particular device unmutes all tracks on load, which is particular troublesome when you re-open a session with a lot of tracks.
Same thing here, tracks unmuted reopening a project.
Guys did you find a solution to the unmute on load issue?
I have not found a solution yet, but would ABSOLUTELY love an update to this device. It's in my default template so it happens every time I open a project, lol. Only good thing about this is it forces me to kill (delete) sounds / tracks I am unsure of. Blessing in disguise?

@Crampe
update :)

P.S. I've noticed you mentioning somewhere that you were using a custom version of live.property, but I don't think it was included in your frozen patch.
In any case, my quick hack might do the job.
Best, OCH
@OCH - you're the man! Trying this out now. :)
@OCH - doooooood, it works, beautifully! Thank you a MILLION!!!!!
thanks OCH, will check your update.
I'm probably update Futility with new feature at some point.
the new version un-mutes every track that was muted when i open the project... please fix this...

or can i have the link to the previous version? i've replaced the old one
probably no one cares about this anymore, but i need to remove the place where I hosted the file I shared back in 2018 on this thread. So, I moved it here now: https://go.och.pw/futilityII.1
apologies for the redundancy, but in the rare occasion people want to look back, at least there's that.
