In Channel View, I propose that the "Pan" box be renamed to "General" and shifted all the way to the left and be the default when selecting Channel View.
The left hand soft knobs should include direct access to clip gain, L/R pan and then an assignable knobs for anything else (perhaps input input monitoring by pushing the button in). Right side pans could also be controlled by pushing the pan knob in while turning. This will save real estate and open up one more knob for custom assignment.
