Quick question about creating a new project in 8.5

Why when you create a new project (Normal project to be exact) there is now no FX send in the audio tracks, and it now only starts you out with one audio track and one MIDI track; it used to give you two of each?  Also, if I manually try and insert an "Insert Send" to the FX bus, there isn't an FX bus send what so ever?  What has happened?  I have tried to find the FX bus, but it's no where to be found; did they remove it?  I have verified this by opening Sonar 8 and 8.5 together to compare, but they don't match.  This is getting annoying...
 
Can anyone help me with this issue? 
 
Thanks,

    First you have to insert a new bus. Then insert FX into the FX bin of that bus, Then insert a send in an audio track going to that bus. Rename the bus so you can keep track of multiple buses.

    You can set up a new project any way you want and then save it as a Template. Then load that in every new project.

    Thanks for replying Chappel. 

    Why did they change the default settings for 8.5?  In Sonar 8, the default was set straight out of the box exactly the way I explained.  There was no need to insert a new bus and then name it FX.  This seems to be tedious to say the least.  I would have figured all my default settings would have transfered over to 8.5, but I guess not?

    if it's annoying you can alter it and save out as the normal template if you want.. just a thought :)

    Ya that's just what I'll have to do Fog.  I just can't figure out why they would make just a drastic change to the normal default setting?  I mean, in Sonar 8, all you had to do was right click the mouse and "Insert Send" then assign it to "FX Send 1"; the "FX Send 1" bus was already there.  It's little changes such as these that make me wonder what they were thinking, and why they would want to mess with our heads like that.  LOL...
