Show/Hide Track Name
Toggles the track name on and off in mixer windows. I can’t think of a reason that I wouldn’t want to see a track name at the bottom of the mixer.

Store Channel Strip Configuration as User Default
In Logic Pro X version 10.4 the ability to save mixer channel strip configurations was added. There is a tool menu in the configuration dialog that enables the saving of settings as a default.
Some times I want a very detailed channel strip, other times not. I keep forgetting that the channel strip components that are visible are “attached” to a screenset. I can have different components visible in each. This is quite a nice feature.

Toggle Hide Group 27
Hmm. 32 groups. The keyboard commands for 1 through 9 are ⌃⇧1 to ⌃⇧9 .
The commands do what I expect. If there is a group numbered ‘n’ the command toggles the view of the tracks/channels. Hidden, but not like “Hide Track”.
Groups appear to be very useful. I should use them more. I fooled around with them a bit to try and change colors more easily, but they do so much more.
Groups are “mixer groups”. The overview helps us get started.
Groups overview
The Mixer groups feature is only available when Show Advanced Tools is selected in the Advanced preferences pane.Prior to mixing, you may find it useful to define some logical channel strip groups. You could, for example, group all drum channel strips under one drum group. This would allow you to control the group meters (volume, pan, mute, solo, sends, and so on) using a single control, while still maintaining the relative parameter values of each channel strip.

Autoscroll to Selection
The normal behavior of the Mixer window is to scroll to reveal the channel strip of a track that is selected in the Arrange window. If you want the mixer to remain where it is, possibly focused on AUX strips, when you select a track in the Arrange window you need to turn off Autoscroll to Selection.
The command is not mapped to any key. The command is located in the View menu Mixer windows. The command is a “toggle”. Mapping a key command allows you to toggle Autoscroll on and off.
What’s new in Logic Pro 10.4 — Logic Pro X
The responsiveness and performance of the Mixer is improved, particularly for projects with high channel strip counts. In addition, the Mixer provides several new capabilities, including creating a default channel strip configuration, disabling autoscrolling to the selected channel strip, and highlighting channel strips corresponding to a send or routing destination. In addition, selecting multiple channel strips also selects the tracks assigned to them.

Show/Hide Sends
Toggles the display of the sends in mixer windows. Does not affect the inspector. It is possible to program all of the channel strip components — normally configured from the conextual menu.
