While writing this ai realised I neglected to show how to add a level visibility track! Oops!
They're very simple to add, here are step by step instructions.

1 - In sequencer, right click and then in the menu add "Add Level Visibility Track".
2 - In the track that appears, simply unhide all the levels you want to be visible and hide the ones you don't. Then right click the visibility track and select "Add from current state". Done!
