(Obviously with more or different instruments the percentages or even positions change.) Have been doing it in that fashion for some time.

I use the right click on the pan button to select Dual Pan on stereo tracks to get them set. Then use the mixer lengthened to check the levels (as well as my ears).

Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the tip, Tony, I'll experiment on my next song.

Man, I can't believe I just discovered this yesterday after using Reaper for almost three years now! blush
