Ardour has recently added the capability for the monitor to also have plugins just like any regular track. What would be use cases for wanting to have a different audio specific to the monitor ? (listening) room correction would be one of the most obvious cases.
This ardour user would love to use an UHJ encoder on his ambisonic master bus (4ch), but finds it doesn't work as the number of available ports gets reported at zero...
To get back to the OP, basically anything that requires pre-processing in order to listen is a usecase. Bass management for your crappy 5.1, matrixing of your M/S location recording that needs to stay M/S for later production steps, hearing protection with a fast limiter, binaural rendering of your stereo or 5.1 signals, the list goes on.
I know I'm gonna love this feature as soon as it's working, it's a very smart thing to have!
