Chris, I have another question/comment. When you mentioned that this issue was reported, did you mean that it had already been reported, or that this was the first time it was identified? Also, in my initial comments is used the word "volume" but it's actually "amplify." I have since discovered that when I attempt to use the pan control on an individual midi track I get the notice that the clip must be rendered first. After rendering, the effects can be applied and they function with that audio track. But I'm under the impression that effects should be applicable to a midi track without rendering.
