Currently there’s a show related channels shortcut for bus channels.  Maybe I’m overlooking It but I’m wondering if there’s a shortcut to show and hide a tracks output channel. Meaning if I’m on my kick track and it’s output is “Drum bus” I want to be able to show and hide the drum bus track using a shortcut when I have the kick track selected.   My current workaround is using the “find track” shortcut and I have a shortcut for each bus but it would be much easier to use a show channel command for the track I have selected. I start my mixes with just my audio tracks showing and once i finish mixing a group I show the bus connected to that group and toggle it’s related channels and move to the next group of tracks and continue until I’m mixing those busses and then certain busses may have the same output then I can show that parent output channel and toggle show related channels and continue that process until I reach my master bus. I can create a macro that shows a tracks output channel track then hides it’s related channels.
