This looks very interesting. I’ll dl in the morning and have a play. I’ll do my next tune with it as a test. It’s a simple song for my wife!

Going OK – the demo project is helpful.
Could something be put in for automatically creating send and return devices? Maybe an option in the New.. menu? Just ask for a name and the number of through channels.
I like what I see btw! I was sort of expecting a send for every bus created, but what you have done is far more sleek, and will obviously cut down CPU resource – rather than sending out parts of every track to the busses and overloading the system, the simple ‘I want that to go there’ approach is nice. It can make for rather involved tree structures, but you know aht goes where. As and when the allowance for multiple device mappings per track comes in the stuctures can be simplified (I recall we talked vaguely about it sometime ago), but until that point, I’d say you’ve done a good job there mate!

Glad you like it Duncan.

I was hoping that the new ‘Create new mixer bus mappings’ command in the project wizard would be enough. If you want the bus mappings to be named differently than Bus 1, Bus 2 etc. you can just rename the mappings afterwards.

The solution with encapsulating the busses in device mapping objects, was a perfect fit with the existing audio engine. I considered the solution with presenting a send dial for each bus on every audio track, but found there were some disadvantages. As you said it would require more CPU usage. Furthermore all audio tracks would need to be delayed with the maximum latency introduced in any of the busses. By using the device mapping method, you can have a bus with a large latency (e.g. SIR reverb), but still audition realtime on tracks with VSTi synths that are not routed into this bus.

Completely missed it, I’ll look next time I load up!
