Re: [Bluemusic-users] Crossover and Subchannels

[Steven Yi <ste...@gm...>]

Well the thought I had is:

1. Create an effect that takes in signals, processes, and has the
three subchannel outputs in the same effect.
2. Effect output is either pass-through or nothing (depending on what
is necessary)

This would mean not having to put multiple sends which should be a
pain (sort of like making your own send mechanism).  I'll add
subchannel dropdown to effects now and will write an example to see.

As for a total mixer rewrite... scary!  :P  Actually, I thought about
a Mixer2 system many years ago but never got around to it.  It might
be nice to have a different mixer put together.  I've long thought
having side chain inputs would be good for instruments/effects.
Anyways, this idea probably needs a lot of design work before any
coding.  Feel free to file and issue and we can hash out ideas there.
