I think that you're overstating this a bit. It's not always appropriate
to offer multiple ins and outs as different buses, only if you have some
sort of sets of ins or outs. Like if you have a main input and a
modulating sidechain input, then you'd use two buses. But each one might
have several channels. And for multiple outs, you only want to use
separate buses if they are, for example, separate outputs for separate
internal instruments (as you were talking about before), but each output
bus again might have multiple channels. Anyway, I know that you realize
this, but I think that what you're talking about probably doesn't apply to
Kent and that you the way you said it made it sound a little more general
than you indended, so I just wanted to clarify so that Kent doesn't go off
making a separate bus for every audio channel!
