Bob, hopefully maybe you have SF's ear a bit. Lemme explain a problem I have had since the first beta of vegas.

Sometimes i like to mix my songs on the console, by using discrete outs from vegas into my soundscape mixtreme card for 16 discrete outs. In order to have say, track 1 go to mixtreme out 1, you MUST pan hard left from track 1 and select whichever bus you want it to go out.
This makes BIG trouble if you you are using DX plugins, as now the send is going to the LEFT side of the fx ONLY. Very bad for placement of drums in a stereo reverb for example.

I have asked everyone in the company I could reach, for about the last 2 or 3 years, fior a simple dx plug that would pan, so that you could preserve placement, albeit at the cost of a severe number of uneeded extra plugins! Better if they could just fix the app itself.
