[Rwp] With OSARA, how to manage volume / pan of items?

[Chris Belle]

yeh, I was meaning to refer to folders,
sonar and reaper both use them, but I tend to use separate tracks when I 
comp.

So much easier to see what you've done, and being able to nudge audio up 
or down, or easily copy from one track in to a main track where you want 
to gather your good bits.

That's how i do it anyway.

I must investigate reaper folders to see if I like them better than sonar's.

Since cloning tracks is so easy,
with fx in place, I never saw an issue with needing to try and cram lots 
of virtual tracks on one but everybody's work flow is different.

I sometimes get rather large track counts this way, but I can see 
exactly what I have and where it's going.
