Will test this out, thanks!
What do you mean with "You must clear plugins after a refresh"

Looks great and just works so far.

While mixing, I spend my time assigning and de-assigning keyboard keys on various groups of plugins when I want to compare different options of processing.
With this little device, I will save a lot of time.
Thanks a lot !!!

I didn't test it in the context of an heavy set, but if it doesn't add CPU load, it will be one the greatest utility M4L devices I use...

@markusschloesser if you add tracks and need to refresh the plugin you're going to also have to clear the list/group you've created and re add the plugins to be tested. This is just a byproduct of how i programmed the logic for this thing and is not ideal :/

@Calagan it seems pretty light weight as of now. It takes a bit of CPU to scan the project but that only lasts a second or 2 and it should be good after that. the actual turning on/off of the devices seems to be very responsive
