Group tracks vs sends

One technique I typically use is grouping like instruments and slapping a compressor on the group track to gel them all together (or attempt to at least :P).



Is there any fundamental difference between doing this and sending them to another audio track? I’m guessing it’s just a work flow thing but not sure…

yes, its just a workflow thing. what you are talking about is the same thing. when you group tracks, Live just automatically does all the routing for you.

I meant “same thing” by they both supply the same results. Thanks for clarifying Howie
