I love using JAMin on drum sub mixes myself. One of the things I really
like about jack is that you can use entire other applications as inserts
very flexibly in Ardour, like using pd as an insert and having it return
both to the same channel and other busses as well. Or even back into
channels on another instance of Ardour for total confusion. :)

I think T-Racks works in both ways. It was stand-alone first, then it
had a VST plugin version.

I've not used that yet. One thing that looks cool is the 'seperation'
control, where you can adjust the amount of interaction between the
compressors in the bands. Looks handy.
