Why Auto Align 2 sometimes leaves so many plugins "ungrouped"?

Dear fellow Auto Align users: I just ran Auto Align on a 33 track I’m goin to mix, and it left 19 of the tracks “ungrouped”. Am I doing something wrong, or is there something I could do to get more of the tracks in a group? Thanks

Hi @kevinote127,

Thanks for your message.

An ungrouped track means Auto-Align didn’t find any correlation between that track and any other tracks.

If for example, I recorded 10 guitar overdub tracks, using one mic for each overdub, it is expected for these 10 tracks to be ungrouped. Auto-Align will only group tracks that share common information.

If needed, you can manually group tracks by selecting them → right-click → New Group or move them to an existing group → Align.

If you’re interested in improving phase correlation between diffrent elements of your mix regardless of how they were recorded, check out our Pi plugin.

If you still have any issues, feel free to contact us at [email protected].

Best,
