Thoughts on interface features

[jonljacobi]

I've been plowing through all the major DAWs recently to get a handle on what's the current state of the art. MuLab is kind of near and dear to my heart and remains my choice for working up songs quickly. But every program has it's strengths (and weaknesses).

I've spotted a few interface features that I'd love to see in MuLab.

A separate tempo/marker/selection track a la Live (and to some degree others). As of now, there's no visible tempo track and markers and loop points obscure the bar markings. I also kind of like the way Sequel forgoes the tick marks next to the bar numbers. I find I don't miss them at all.

Some sort of buttons to show/hide the mux/rack desk/browser. Just about every DAW has them. These would easily fit in the area to the left of the keyboard where now there's only a logo. Personally, I'd also like to be able to hide the track pane without having to drag.

A full-screen mode as with Ableton.

There's lots of other stuff, but generally a matter of personal taste and aesthetics. Feel free to chime in.
