Very quickly assign all sounds on a timeline to a single speaker
I need to call about 50 sound effects on a single timeline, and they all occur in the same place. Please let me know if there's a shortcut to assigning all of these sounds to a single speaker. I'd like to reduce motion-control RSI as much as possible and boy howdy does this task seem painful.
I think I tried everything:
- I read that placing a sound and speaker inside of the same chip will auto-assign, but it does not.
- Nor does a speaker placed inside of a timeline.
- Double-clicking to select all sounds in a chip/timeline does not allow for batch-assignment of speakers, even though other settings batch-assign just fine.
- There seems to be no speaker assignment option for the timeline itself, just the sounds within it.
- Master mixer and channel settings don't have any speaker options, either.
If there's a workaround, I'm all ears.
Thank you for your time!

Ah! Just got it. Turns out, Select All --> "Enter speaker name..." does work, but only when using the PS4 onscreen keyboard to manually enter the text. Phew!

If all the sound effects don't have something in the speaker name field, then they should use the speaker in the same timeline/chip. http://tapgiles.com/docs/#sound-panning
