I have a large orchestral template setup across several computers using VE Pro7. This covers most of my use cases, but occasionally I want to change the panning, levels, etc. of various instruments for a given project without having a completely different server project. 

I can do this now by not decoupling the modified instances so that the modifications get saved with my Cubase projects. However, this leads to huge Cubase saves and is very error prone. I have to work with the instances decoupled and then remember to turn off decoupling when I save or I will lose all the mixer change that are specific to the project. I could theoretically just always work with decoupling off, but this is not practical because it takes forever to save.

Ideally, I would like to have the same decoupled instances for all projects, but just change mixer settings between projects. Is there any way to do this? If not, this is a feature I would gladly pay for.

I guess the other option is to modify my template so there are outputs for each instrument running back to my DAW, and then use the DAW for mixing instead of VE Pro, but that will likely cause problems due to a ton of network traffic. 

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
