Sometimes, I want to focus on a track quickly while still hearing everything else. Especially when I'm working on a large mix.

I'm asking for a button that would temporarily increase the gain on the selected track/tracks by 3 dB and lower the rest of all tracks by maybe 6 or 9 dB

Preferably, I would like to be able to configure the gain+attenuation. Focus track between +6 and 0 dB. The rest of the tracks between 0 and -12 dB.

It would be amazing to have this alternative next to Solo and Mute.

If someone manages to make a macro for this, please let me know ;)
