Well you learn something new every day! My "split a channel to two auxes" idea has been made way simpler by the fact that you can hold down the control key and assign a mono channel to two mono busses without the panner. i can't believe i didn't know this before! i'm an idiot!

Here's the revised "pull it out of the mixer technique": take your mono channel and bus it to Master out left. Then hold control and bus it again to Master out right. The output bus button on the channel will say " + Master L". Now zero the fader and control the level with a plug-in. That's it!

i haven't officially tested its bit transparency yet, but i assume it will work just as well, with one sample less latency.
