stardustmedia Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I accidentally created that channel color, when importing channels from an old v8 session. Save it somewhere, then import the channel into any session, et voilà black channel color. Then you can also color the regions black.

stardustmedia Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 I'll try... but I think I don't have a white channel somewhere in an old session. There is always the possibility to "hack" one of those plist-files (or so). This way some user create whole new graphics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas007 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Thanx for sharing! BTW, ever heard about Colorizer? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stardustmedia Posted May 9, 2018 Author Share Posted May 9, 2018 Thanx for sharing!BTW, ever heard about Colorizer? Yes, but I never wanted to use that "hack". The graphics are ok for me. I just missed black. Is there another member here, that maybe has an v8 or v9 session, where he knows he had used White? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musician-X1 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 How would I color other channels black as well? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anp27 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 How would I color other channels black as well? You'd probably have to start out with a template that has the precolored black channel strips, or duplicate and then copy over the plugins from the other colored channel strips to the black channel strip. There's no short way of doing this... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stardustmedia Posted May 16, 2018 Author Share Posted May 16, 2018 I have a black region in my template. With the command color channel from region you can color the channels easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoPro Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 How do I save the black channel without all the other files ? I want a save as but how do I leave out all the instruments in your old session ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I understand what you mean here: I downloaded @stardustmedia's file and it doesn't have any other instruments? There was however an audio file referenced in the Project Audio browser pane, maybe that's what you mean? You can just press F to open that pane, select that file, press delete to remove it, then save that again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoPro Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Not sure . I just want the black color for a channel strip in the future . I’m not doing something right. When I save as it saves the whole song without the instruments…asks me to ignore all the tracks of the original session. that I don’t want . I totally appreciate the black color for the channel though …how do I just keep the black color for a channel ? Sorry I am probably making this seem harder than it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you know how to save an instrument with all its channel settings as a patch, so you just have to do that. The Stardustmedia's patch is empty (no instrument or fx), when you'll recall it you'll just have to add the instrument and fxs you'll want 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
