[RWP] a workaround to adjust aux sends

[Patrick Perdue]

Maybe I'm reading something wrong, but isn't that what shift+I is for, 
getting better access to those faders once the routing you want has been 
set up?

This is specific to ReaAccess, and seems to work well for the most part.

So, yeah, the way you're setting up receives to an effect track is 
probably the quickest way to do it, lots faster than clicking on sends 
for each individual track. After that, press shift+I from the effect 
track, set the radio button to receives, then each one shows up in a 
list with accessible versions of pan, volume, etc. channel 
input/routing, a button to change the send behavior, I.E. postfader 
(which is also pre-effect post raw track output,) post effect, or some 
other options.

. You can, of course, go the other way with individual track sends, 
though looking at it from that perspective is more convenient with lots 
of tracks going to a common source.
