If you never use this button, everything "should" work exactly as it does now. The mode is saved across sessions and is in your saved configuration. There is also the "Master Track" button on the right hand side of the patchbay that should be of no initial concern.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"> GANG_NONE -- the button icon looks like 3 tracks with ... on the end. This is the "gang_NONE" mode.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">GANG_CHANNELS -- the button icons looks like 2 tracks. This is the BT 433 mode where <b>stereo tracks are treated as 1 audio track for the purpose of making changes on that single track which are propagated to all of its other channel tracks automatically</b>. This is the requested DAW-like mode. If you have 6 audio channels and are in this mode, they will be subject to the same edits.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">GANG_MEDIA - this mode only shows the first track of the media but the changes are propagated to the appropriate other related tracks.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Although this sounds a little difficult, it is expected that everyone will likely work in the default GANG_NONE mode except for the DAW users who want stereo tracks to be treated the same in the GANG_CHANNELS mode. <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Lots of testing is needed to include just using Cinelerra in the normal mode to ensure that there is no unintended changes in the default case. A couple of problems that we just found and have not been fixed yet are: the automatic "shared track" attachment of a plugin might show up in the wrong edit.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">PLEASE provide any feedback as soon as you find anything.
