This is of course the crux of matter . What exactly someone is doing (solo or multi track ) And the sound someone is after .
And to clarify a bit further as to terminology the reason I always use a 2-Bus (which I label 2 Mix)
And why I would even for a solo guitar session is because in Pro Tools an "Aux Track" ( 2 -Bus) track all the plugins are pre fader in the signal flow . Where the Master Fader track ( default main stereo output bus) the plugins are post fader
