Summary	0001256: send level controls
Description	One of my only regrets leaving the world of logic audio behind is the speed at which i used to be able to assign and modify sends on tracks and busses. When setting up a headphone mix it can become a bit tedious openning the send edit window (double clicking doesnt seem to work?) to adjust a fader on every track.
Additional Information	In logic a new send would be inserted into the mixer with a tiny rotary control next to it for the send level. I'm not suggesting to remove the fader from the edit window, just to make a master level control next to each send. It may sound too cluttered but it doesnt necessarily have to be, i have taken a small screenshot of logic's implementation (not sure about others) to highlight what i mean. note: if the attachment doesn't work, the screenshot is also at: http://porl.homelinux.org/logic_send.png
