Dear programmers and other interested parties:
I would like to see a minor function in RB allowing me to quickly transfer a track to the END of the track list, using just a click or two. Let's call it "Send to End." This could perhaps go on the Edit menu or the Track menu, but certainly would be useful as a right-click option. The tracks could be stacked in reverse order, from #48 down, and thus be out of the workspace, removing clutter, stored but not deleted.
Example: You've comped a great vocal track out of six different takes, and you want to get rid of the six original tracks to avoid clutter: "Send to End." All you see up top is the newly comped track.
Example: You've sent all your midi tracks through your outboard sound module (I usually use Ketron SD2), so you now have fresh audio tracks for mixing and no longer any immediate use for the original midi tracks: "Send to End."
Anyone else find this useful?

Maybe I'm not following you.. If you move the data to the end of the file, why not just mute the tracks?
'Moving to end' may affect some rendering processes, and add file size.
Make your sound your own! .. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

I don't think you understood him -- read it again. He suggested simply moving the tracks to the "END of the track list," not to the end of the file. He maybe should have said the BOTTOM of the track list. This wouldn't add anything to the file size, just rearrange the order.
Of course, you can do the same thing with cut and paste, or by dragging tracks to the bottom, but this is a little more laborious.
All in all, I think this a neat idea -- maybe it's just a small improvement, but if you do a lot of cutting and pasting on vocal tracks -- or even on RealTracks -- it would be kind of elegant in smoothing the process, allowing a cleaner workspace in the track list. After tracks are "sent to the end" they could be muted automatically, and just left there for storage, if needed later, rather than deleted to get them out of the way.

Brallan,
Totally understood - In the DAW I use most often, it's a graphical 'drag' function, but I like your idea better. I also have access to folder tracks, where is where I stick the sources of a comped track if I want to keep them around. Also, in the DAW I use, I can expand or shrink the vertical size of a track with double-click operations - very handy for making that 'currently interested in this track' track the biggest on the screen. Another double click on the track and it shrinks back to it's original size vertically.

Yes, Scott... Thank you.
You don't say which DAW you are using, but you know that RealBand now has this option -- to click through three different track widths, by clicking on the little arrowhead on the left of the track.
This helps a lot to reduce clutter, but I would still like to be able to easily send the tracks off-screen for storage.

The DAW is Tracktion. You can drag a track vertically in your tracklist anywhere; up,down and careful - side to side in time.

Do you want to drag your track to another track number ? Vertical drag is easy ,right click the track # you want to drag it to and at the top of the pull down list is track type change it to audio. Hold ctrl and drag it . Also you can also drag only a portion by highlighting ,instead of using cut and paste. Is this helpful ,hope I am understanding you right .
