  • FX button in transport doesn't disable Prochannel effects in some projects

Hi,
Is there an easy way to disable all prochannel modules in all tracks - similar to the FX button at the top, which bypasses all effects?
I find in large projects with prochannel strips enabled on every track, I incur clicks and pops at low buffer settings when tracking.  To get around this, I've manually clicked on the "global on / off" at the top of a bunch of tracks, disabling the pro channel on those until the clicks went away, but I'm guessing there's a much easier way to do this.
 
Thanks
Russ

Does selecting all tracks (Ctrl-A?) then ctrl-clicking the power button on one PC not disable them on all tracks (quick grouping)?

The shortcut E disables all active Pro Channels.
 
I always track with all Fx disabled, avoiding any possibility of pops, clicks, dropouts etc. And it reduces latency considerably.

There is also the FX button in the Mix Module of the Control Bar.

Thanks Jonesy - I'll try that.
 
John - yes, thanks, I'm already using the FX bypass button, but am looking to also bypass prochannel instances.  The FX bypass button only seems to disable FX in the FX bin (for me, at least)

It does on mine. I just tested it.

It does indeed. The only fine point is you need to do channels and buses independently.

John - thanks for testing, very kind of you.  I would swear it didn't disable active ProChannel modules on mine, but will doublecheck tonight - maybe I did something wrong or I'm delusional.  :)

Did a quick test - it seems the FX button in the transport DOES disable ProChannel effects in one of my projects, but it doesn't in another project. 
 
I haven't tested other projects yet, but any ideas why this would be?
 
Thanks,
Russ
