In the past I have used the VST Rack because of it’s flexibility with outputs but now with many VST’s offering internal mixing, this appears to be less critical.
I have been anxiously awaiting any word in relation to multi-timbral/output VST’s for a long time but have figured I would try and make greater use of Instrument Tracks due to their convenience of use and compact nature.
Admittedly I will still have some instruments instanced via the rack since I need the multiple outputs for processing under my UAD card such as the basses (it makes sense to keep some instrument types together) but I feel now that even if an instrument track simply supported multi-trimbrality, that it would be a giant leap forward and that this feature request should take precedence over all others.
Cheers and enjoy cubase!
