[RWP] bypassing a track effect for certain items, is it possible?

[indigo]

I got hot into learning midi editing just after getting the Behringer 
BCF2000 ; so have for the time being shelved exploring how to do 
automation from a control surface.
I did try 1 of the modes that controls some of Reaper, and definitely 
control volume of audio tracks, 8 tracks at a time from the faders; then 
shifting to the next 8, up to 32 tracks.
Also does panning per track with the pots at the top, etcetera, similar 
to Tim Burgess's Mackie Display Reader for Sonar.
I haven't so far got a midi track to change volume from a fader on the 
BCF2000, only audio tracks, don't know why, but I'll get back into 
remotely controlling Reaper once I get more basic procedures understood.
  Only tried 1 of the several possible configurations out there for 
Reaper with the BCF2000, there are 3 or 4 more waiting to try, plus the 
one most likely to work, Tim's forthcoming version 2, generic for Sonar, 
Reaper, ProTools, for both mac and PC.
I don't think there's anything ReaAccess does that would prevent 
automation from a control surface, even a single midi assignable fader 
on any midi keyboard can do all possible automations; 1 automation type 
at a time; 1 track at a time, so if you have at least 1 assignable 
fader, that transmits midi CC messages, noone  needs to feel shut out of 
automation.
On many midi keyboards, not only faders, but the mod wheel and pitch 
bend wheel are assignable to send out  midi control change messages.
Any old piece of gear with assignable controls can do all possible 
automations,  no cost, except time or maybe sighted help required 
assigning controls, and sometimes they're already assigned to the action 
you need in Reaper.
An My  Roland groove box from 1999 has a nice long throw fader 
assignable by buttons above the fader to transmit midi volume or midi 
clock rate; plus there are also 16 tiny faders that already send out 
attack, decay, sustain, release, pan, volume, reverb parameters, 
etcetera, for the groove boxes internal sounds, and those messages are 
always transmitted out midi, no need to even find sighted hellp to 
assign those, just try them to learn what they already change in Reaper.
Drag that old hardware sequencer or drum box out of the back of the 
closet, dust it off, and find out what it already does in Reaper.
It doesn't need to be among Reaper's supported control surfaces, just 
configure it in options/preferences ctrl+P as a midi device, and put a 
check mark on transmit controller messages.
