"I have found that the new Custom Module is one the greatest improvements"
+100 (finally!)
 

Bear in mind this is spread across 3 monitors. Puts the transport right in the "sweet spot".

I want that for real! -S

 
Damn, and I thought I was original. I just made a feature request for this a few days ago. Nice one.

What is the meter showing?

I will keep watching this page to get other ideas.

I find it interesting as well, particularly how many modules are minimized vs. full size.
 
BTW this may be obvious but for those having a hard time seeing the bars, right-click and copy the image, then paste into Paint and you can see the whole thing. If you're browsing the forum on the Mac, you can do the same thing and in Preview, select New from Clipboard.

Good question. Maybe the master out, or it could be context sensitive and show whichever channel was selected.

 
Here's mine. This stuff is highly scientific. The custom module is at the left, where I would instinctively look for menu functions. The mix module is aligned with the mix functions of the track view. The playback module ties together the tracks pane and the clips pane. Tools, snap, loop and markers are right above the clips pane for minimal mousing distance. Event module is before screensets, to space things out a little. Performance module is the finishing touch of this masterpiece.
 
I wish there were spacers, I'd put one between custom and mix, one between playback and tools, one between marker and event, and a last one before performance, or something like that.
 
About the hypothetical spectrum meter module, my idea was that it would have a right click menu to choose any track or bus output. Context sensitive could also work I guess.

I'm curious why a lot of you are showing Performance. Is this something you monitor a lot, or would dropping it down as a status check work just as well?

I monitor Performance because I have a six-core processor and I like to watch the little bars go up and down. :)

I'm going to have to give this a try. I like the thinking behind it. The one modification I'd make is to reduce the loop to its minimum size, and put a minimized punch module to its immediate right.

Or you can right-click on the image and load it in a new browser tab.
Usually the forum tool resizes the large image to fit.
 

Not exciting, but here you go:
