A small request:

Please make insert effects automation available on instrument tracks. Currently if you want to create automation for an insert effect you have to create a separate track, as there is no way to choose it from the instrument track.

Example:

I have a vst plug-in on one track, with a flanger inserted. When I choose automation from the instrument track, the flanger automation options are not available. I then have to create another track specifically for the flanger automation, then drag it to the instrument track, and also delete the extra track created for the flanger automation.

Not a huge deal, but it just seems like it would easy enough to add the flanger automation options to the instrument track and eliminate the 2 extra steps involved.

EDIT:

Never mind, just discovered the drag and drop method, done by dragging the hand icon in the upper left to the track.
