I like @sambosun's mock up with filtering.
It would be great to just steal some additional track filtering ideas from Digital Performer.
In DP, in addition to filtering tracks by name, you can also hide or show tracks based on all sorts of criteria: track type (Instrument, MIDI, Audio, AUX, etc.), whether the track is empty or contains content, etc.
Logic already has the ability to select tracks based on certain criteria:
All
Unused
Same-Colored
Instrument
MIDI
Audio
Drummer
Aux
Sub/VCA
Summing Stack
Folder Stack
Folder
It would be great to add:
Used
Used (within locators)
Unused (within locators)
Enabled (Track On)
Disabled (Track Off)
Right now, acting on filtered track selection in Logic is pretty clunky. To show only empty tracks, you have to:
Select all Tracks
Toggle Show/Hide until they all appear
Select Tracks -> Unused
Invert Selection
Toggle Show/Hide
So it would be great if in addition to selecting tracks using the Track criteria, a user could also do the following:
Deselect
Hide
Show
Show Only
This would allow for very powerful track filtering.
