The basic reason why solving this sort of problem requires some non-trivial manipulations is Ardour's one-to-one mapping of editor tracks and mixer strips. Which of course simplifies a lot of things, it's not there without reason. A simple solution would be to have a routing option between the track outputs and strip inputs. Default would be one-to-one, but then at least you can override it if you need to (and accept the consequences). Summing signals wouldn't be required, it can be simple selection. This would also provide a simple solution to a requirement I face all the time: routing a recorded track to more than one strip. And having the bare track outputs available on Jack outputs would facilitate using an external (HW or SW) mixer. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
