FX send from buss

(VP-9) Can an Effects send be created from a Buss. For instance a number of vocal tracks which are assigned to Buss A, sent to an FX buss containing a reverb. (not to be confused with assigning FX directly to the buss)
I think I recall doing that, but I may be confusing it with SloTools or Sonar.
It's all starting to blend together in my troubled mind.
Thanks, Rick

Yes, very easily.... in mIxing Console you need to create a FX channel (i.e. use "Insert Assignable FX" button and select a Reverb), create your busses, then you will get sends to the FX channel automatically in those bus channels...... hint: also assign your vocal channels directly to the busses, rather than use the Bus A, Bus B sends which appear in the same channels. That way the vocal channels cannot feed direct to Master bus.

Thanks Christo, I'll try that when I get significantly aggravated by SloTools, (in about 10 min.) Now if VP could only open OMF files it would be a wonderful world. .. a better one anyway.
