Rendering...when to in your workflow and for quality?

Up until now as I've worked in Reaper when I render my project I've done an all or nothing kind of thing - rendering everything as the mastermix and I realize there may be some limitations on this.

Now my computer is powerful enough to handle this - lot's of headroom with memory and CPU -- I'm assuming I shouldn't lose quality with this approach but I may be wrong.

Rendering with Reaper x64

I have rendered a few songs with Reaper, but I'm having trouble with one aspect.

When I render any song, all VSTi's are incorporated in the final product, though any changes or modifications to those VSTi's sound are lost. Only the original sound is rendered.

Does anyone know what setting I need to check off or use to render with all changes to VSTi's in the final product?
