hey i dont know if u saw the preview of 1.7 and it having a global mixer, u can then go to preferences and choose for event/global mixer....
but i was thinking, when i use a plugin there sort of is a global mixer, when you go to track mix, it shows a fader for the track and a seperate fader for the plugin...now couldn't they just have done the same for drumprograms??? then i would be pretty much satisfied....also seems faster then going to preferences etc. and that being said, the plugin have a volume knob on them, so they didnt really needed a seperate fader, although i find myself using it a lot, when i have multiple sequences made, and i dont wanna go over all them to adjust it to my welbeing.....i just use the volumefader of the device itself not the tracks, unless i want different volumes per sequence...then i can Always use the volume fader of the track

Yep. But more so the unified mixer or mixer scenes would also make sure that your pgms and plugins are the same across all sequences.. ie...

You've got like 10 or 12 sequences already, your on your 13 sequence and decide that track 5 with the sample chop needs a different sample chop as its not really fitting anymore. So you change it in the 13 seq. You want it to change for all seq.. With unified mixer you only have to do this once.. and it will change all seq for you.. Instead of doing it the way now, where you have to change every seq to the right synth pgm/plugin..

Especially useful for sound shaping aswell via effects. As you go deeper and deeper into your beat, you may add plugins later on tracks for instance your drum track, it needs some eq on it. IF you've made like over 10 seq, and have to remember to pu that same eq on each seq. Pretty laborious.

Then when you've got like 12 different beats for a live set , you dont want a unified mixer, as they need there own mixer settings...
