Thanks Jackie, it seems from what Carol says, that this won't help if JFW

| Hi Andy
|
| I've never used it, but if you go to the JFWLite website, it says
| QuickMix allows you to store all or part of the current state of your 
audio
| mixer in a settings file, and to restore the mixer to that state whenever
| you want.
|
| There is also a link there to download it.
