thanks Bob! I was reading about groups, but didn't see how they fit into the equation. I'll change the audio prefs and experiment.

I have 8 (buses?) labeled A1-A8 and 16 (outputs?) labeled A1-A16 but only A1 seems to do anything. Whatever I assign to outputs A2-A16 immediately loses whatever effects I assigned to them in the Aux settings

Not sure why the naming convention is the same for two different things (A1-A8 or A1-A16), I find it confusing in a first world problem kind of way.

Wah.
