We're still not out of the woods with sB though, you can't render destructively through a plug-in in real-time during a capture (well not intentionally lol) & the bussing which is virtually non-existent in sB doesn't work when capturing from a physical input source through sB.
I used to occasionally record through a plug on sB 1.3 (something).
You just set meters containing the plug slots to input.
I did a few records with a plug doing an extra dB on the way back in.
Not tried it in sB 2.0 though.
I usually pitch with that.
I'll give it a go for capture N get back to ya.
