Maybe I'm not getting the big picture, but how would you get the available =
subchannels to begin with? Are you referring to zak channels, or is this a =
newer blue feature I'm unaware of?  Granted, I've been trying to keep up wi=
th the changes on this list, but damn, you've been busy!=0A=0A----- Origina=

 blue=0A=0AHi MIchael,=0A=0AI'm wondering if I implement a special BSB drop=
down that can grab the=0Anames of the available subchannels if that would c=
over what you might=0Aneed.  So you could use the subchannel form of blueMi=
xerOut, and have:=0A=0AblueMixerOut "<SUBCHANNEL_DROPDOWN>", sigL * <SEND_A=
MOUNT>, sigR * <SEND_AMOUNT>=0A=0Aor use a score value to do the amount of =
send.=0A=0AI think it should be a fairly portable way to do this.  If I can=
=0Aimplement sidechaining in the future, it might be possible then to=0Aals=
o choose either subchannel or sidechain input.=0A=0AAny thoughts?=0Asteven=
