well, then why not just crank your levels up, and use the gains, voila, you have a rotary mixer!

i've actually done this, it works good, i find i can be smoother with the levels on a knob than a slider.

only problem is, if the gain is down, you can't hear it in the headphones.

also, i use the gain to make it so that when the level is at the top, the track is just about distorting but not quite. with only the gain, you don't have this ability.
