Description

Your idea

The aux sends channels only allow changing their values with their knobs. This is imprecise and can be cumbersome to work with.

Problem to be solved

Adding number fields here would not only allow for easier and more precise input, but also bring these new mixer elements visually in line with existing ones (pan)

Research direction

No file or test is named; begin by locating the mixer’s aux-send controls and comparing them with the existing pan control. Done means each instrument-specific reverb aux send accepts precise numeric input and is visually consistent with pan.
