Hi, I also have MC 6 and I tried to reproduce the issue, but the Track Manager option is grayed out, on the Strips Menu / Console View.
I also checked the
online help for MC 7 and it should be possible to hide some tracks hitting Ctrl+Alt+H, on the Track View. But occurs that after that, I couldn't bring them back, by hitting Shift+H
Maybe I'm missing something?
Best regards
