How to Assign all tracks to one bus

I'm sorry I'm being so brain dead, but all I want to do is assign all 15 audio tracks to one bus, say "Bus 1", so that
if I bring down the bus volume to nothing, all sound is completely off!
 
I've done this in 8.5, but for some reason when I do it in X1, the bus volume reduces, but not completely off.
 
I'd like to have complete control of the output via the bus slider. How do I do this?
 
I thought I saw a way Seth Perlstein did it with multiple drum tracks, something about assigning all stereo outs, or
something, I just can't remember!
 
Does anyone know I can do this?
 
Thanks so much for any response!

    You select all tracks you want to send to the bus. Then, at the bottom of the output-dropbox (where you normally select outputs for the track), you'll find "selected track outputs".

    Select this and choose the output you want for your tracks :)

    You assign all by hitting control on the keyboard and make you output selection.  All track outputs will be assigned the new out.

    Best

    You're describing a master bus - None of the answers here have addressed your complaint that the sound isn't going all the way out--Do you mean your sound isn't going to INF when you've successfully assigned all tracks to that master bus?
