Except the master cannot be assigned to a VCA...
Both these decisions seem to come from the thought that yes, 95% of sane 
recording usecases would have you gang the faders of inputs. But take it 
from the horse's mouth, in sound design where people abuse Ardour to 
serve as an arbitrarily complex mixing desk because there is no budget 
to rent a friggin CL5, it is dead useful to be able to gang output fader 
levels.

So hooray for both: please let me use VCAs *and* Groups on the Master. 
Unless that is an implementation nightmare for some reason I don't see, 
in which case I would appreciate the option of hiding the master bus 
from the mixer view.

Best,


Jörn
