Exactly..... which I guess just isn't going to happen as of DP7.2

Did this get fixed for DP8?

This has annoyed me for a very long time. Audio Assignments is so easy, couldn't they have the same thing for sends?

I'd like to know before buying DP8.

No, the Audio Assignments window still does not offer the option of assigning sends.

This is not a 'fix', since it's never been a feature.

Yes, I've submitted... no sign of it happening.

In the mean time, what's wrong with dragging and dropping the sends in the mixer, again? It's quite fast, even for multiple tracks.

There's nothing wrong with that, it just takes more time that doing it at once. I would think that even just assigning the sends of 48 tracks to the same bus at once could be implemented. That would take a lot less time than doing it 48 times... right?

You're right.
It would be so much better if MOTU included the send assignments in the Audio Assignments window. Definitely.

My point was that, for now, at least they gave us the ability to drag and drop them, which totally beats selecting from impossibly long lists, like before DP8. This may indicate they are not planning on including them in the previously mentioned window any time soon.
