I definitely like the idea of the new parent send feature, but the implementation confuses me.

Often, I would like to send a stereo pair other than 1-2 to the parent – but this UX doesn't allow that.

I assumed that selecting "stereo" in the left dropdown would update the channels (right) dropdown to include all the possible stereo pairs (i.e. in 6 channels you would get 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5, and 5-6), just like choosing send channels – but it's stuck on 1-2.

I consider it acceptable to enable only groups of consecutive channels (not just any single channels) to go to parent, so probably it's just a matter of having the number of channels dropdown update the channel selection dropdown options, which are stuck at "1-2" currently. That seems like a bug, otherwise what's the point of this "1-2" dropdown?
