To be clear, I'm not talking about a per-clip ProChannel strip. I'm talking about the ability to use the individual PC effects on a per-clip basis.
 
My main application would be SFX for videos. In one of these projects, I may have hundreds of SFX clips. It's not very feasible to have a single track or buss just to process one clip with one of the PC effects. Even having the clips in a track and automating parameters to turn the PC modules on and off isn't very feasible compared to a simple per-clip FX that I can do with normal VSTs--including the ones that are bundled with and tied to Sonar. Having the ability to just pop in a PC effect on a clip would be terrific.
 
Like the hybrid eq. Its broad boost and narrow cut is a very easy to use, good sounding method. It would make a wonderful per-clip eq.  And again--I don't mean have it available by default on every clip. Just don't limit it to a channel strip, make it available as an option to insert on a clip.
I think this capability will depend on whether Cakewalk decides to create dual mode ProChannel modules as Noel mentioned them being technically capable of having (such as the Softube bundle).  I understand what you are saying now and that's up to Cake and what they want from the product.  Noel mentioned that in the future they may, but seemed very no committal at this time and seemed to hint he would like to keep it simple as that was it's intent.  But who knows, if enough ask maybe it will change.
