Hi simplemachines,
That’s right when exclusive arm is disabled , Armer works perfectly by automatically arming the track I select (same as for when it’s enabled). The issue arises when I try to manually arm an additional track, as you mentioned. And my apologies for any confusion I’m Ctrl+clicking instead (shift+clicking) directly on the Arm Recording button to mimic the behaviour of exclusive arming when armer is on. This sometimes works sometimes doesn’t.
Thank you!

Hi simplemachines,
Just wanted to share some feedback regarding the Armer device. When exclusive arming is disabled in Preferences and Armer is used on the Master track, it seems like holding Shift while arming another track should allow both MIDI and audio tracks to be armed simultaneously, regardless of which one is currently selected. However, in practice, this behavior is inconsistent—it only works randomly after multiple attempts, and sometimes not at all.
I’d really appreciate it if this could be addressed, as I prefer using Armer over Options.txt for managing arming behavior. It allows me to save a default set without any tracks pre-armed, while still enabling instant arming just by clicking on a track.
Thank you!

I can't thank you enough for this simple yet super-effective device, it's been such a game-changer that I had to make an account just to express my heartfelt gratitude. This has improved my workflow in ways I couldn't have imagined!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this swift fix! The arming of multiple tracks is working flawlessly—exactly as I had hoped. This is such an underrated feature, and you truly deserve all the flowers for making it happen.
When it comes to feedback, I think the functionality is perfect as is. I really appreciate the ability to arm tracks using Shift + Click / Ctrl + Click—it feels intuitive and well thought out. Some users might prefer keeping it limited to Ctrl/Cmd + Click, which could add an extra layer of simplicity, but that’s just a minor thought.
Once again, thank you so much! I’m truly grateful for your work.
