Agreed!

Also agreed!

Make all touchscreen functions work when you zoom in to a function. Currently you have to use the external monitor

This is definitely the long term plan

Ability to share local console I/O with slave surface and vice versa

Working on it

Ability for slave surface to patch to stage rack outputs

Also working on it

Allow blank channels in custon fader layouts

Add more custom fader layouts

You should have both of these VERY VERY soon, as well as a new workflow for creating layouts.

Double the graphic size of plug ins

Is a bit more complicated than you might think, and will most likely require work from the third party plugin manufacturers.

Allow for a custom CKM encoder layer

The "Channel" CKM map is an entirely customizable layer, did you mean something else?

Abilility to program the colored channel buttons in the events page. Use them if you want, or not.

Agreed

Ability to make any colored channel buttons flash via events page.

Ah, I hadn't thought of this one, that's a great Event Action to add to the list...

[Karel Noon]

I want to add compatibility with S3L-X
Connecting surfaces to the other engines and sharing of inputs

It's already possible (since 4.x SW).

[RyanJ]

For those of you on 5.3, you'll see some of these already implemented!

[Rudio Audio]

Here are my feature requests.

1. Quicker acces to parameters i Channelstrip Mode
The ability to use the dedicated parameter buttons to toggle between parameters. Scrolling through them is not effective.

2. Multiband Comp/Dynamic EQ for every Channel

3. Flexible banking
The ability to bank independently on the left and right side of the MLM.

4. Assign Group to Group

5. Dynamic Scaling of Plug-in GUI
Some Plug-ins are very small.

6. Indication of recallsafed sections on the Channel view
The ability to toggle safeparameters directly in the channel view.

7. Updated Snapshotsection
(See DiGico T)

8. Sub-numbering of snapshots
When creating a new snapshot between snapshot 1 and 2, the new snapshot should be named eg. 1.1. This way theater guys do not have to reorder any cue notes, midi programming etc.

9. Initial Data/Default Show
Should be un-deletable

10. Dynamic Automation
To timecode

11. Mix function on channel compressors
For easy parallel compression (X32/M32).

12. Renaming of Mute Groups and Functionswitches
For easy navigation and understanding.

13. Deeper ingration of events
The ability to access all parameters of input/output channels. (Digico Macros), Yamaha userdefined Keys, Behringer etc. eg. An event that toggels send on/off of send 1-4 on inputch. ch. 13

14. iPad app
A absolute must

15. Native Offline Editor for Mac

16. Userdefined Knoblayout
Containing plug-in parameters. For quick acces to reverb time, delay feedback etc. and also a specific ch. parameters eg. AUX 2 level for ch.15

17. Postfader insertpoint
This is needed when using eg. Dan Dugan etc.

18. An easy way to acces the attention channels parameters
Attentioning a a channel is a dead-end for other parameters than solo, mute and faderlevel.

19. Banksafe reshuffles banking
When Banksafing, banking is reordered, so that the banksafed channels does not live on-top of other channels.

20. Ability to disable flipping of parameters other than Auxes
It can be dangerous to flip eg. Gains by mistake.

21. Ability to route the Monitor outputs to a Matrix
Many Monitor engieneers route the Monitor output to a matrix and put comunicationchannels into theese, so that com. is always comming through. The headphone amp should be able to pickoff from a matrix as well.

22. Ganging of channels
The ability to gang two or more channels permanently. It is an issue to eg. stereolinking channels durring show/changeover and audio is interrupted.

23. Master Safe Channels
The ability to Recall safe channels above a show-level. Recall safe only applies to the loaded show. A global safe that overwrites on a global level would be very good to have. Global Recall safe the master fader, speaker or DJ eg.

24. Shared I/O between consoles (port-to-port patching)
The ability to share local inputs between consoles (com lines etc) without having to go through the stagerack.

25. Boot Engine from console
For Theater installations

26. Venue screen on Master Touchscreen
As an option so an external monitor is not necessary.

27. Onscreen keyboard.
To eliminate the need of a external keyboard.

28. Pr. channel alternative input.
For instant spare mic routing, in case of eg. mic failure.

29. Mix Minus
Essential for Broadcast workflows.

30. VCA to AUX
Quick monitormixes from VCAs (Midas).

31. Groups to AUX
Send groups to AUXs

32. Compatability with other AVB manufacturers
Direct compatability with eg. MOTU, Pivitec etv.

33. Surround.

34. AVB Insert
The ability to inserert via AVB

35. History Waveform on meter section
Like the S6

36. RTA on inputs and outputs

37. Easier way to make stereochannels / busses
Right-clickining is not very fast. Maybe it could be done easier from the universe view.

38. Fadermoves in Multiselect mode.
When touching two or more faders in multiselect mode the movement is multiplied - very dangerous feature!

39. New Sends on fader mode.
When an input is attentioned, all aux faders flips to show the attentioned channel contribution to the Aux. Very fast! (X32/DiGico)

40. Auto-naming of FX Returns
When returning eg. an effect from the rack the input of that rack should be transfered to the returnchannels for quick setup. Eg. Naming a send "Hall" taking Bus-out into the rack, returning the effect to a stereochannel should automatically rename it to "Hall"

41. EQ on faders easy reset.
Reset at frequencyband by eg. "Muting" or the color button beneath the fader. The "Default+fadertouch" is not effective. A/B function would be great like digico has. Toggels from set Gain/att. to 0 to A/B the effect.

42. GEQ Toggle mode
The GEQ togglemode should never exit the GEQ but continue to toggle low/high frequencybands. Exit should be done by pressing OK or Cancle.

On it.

2. Multiband Comp/Dynamic EQ for every Channel

You want to use the same one on every channel rather than a myriad of options with plugins? Would you be willing to give up other processing to do this? (such as bands of EQ in the case of DiGiCo)

3. Flexible banking
The ability to bank independently on the left and right side of the MLM.

How would you like to do this?

4. Assign Group to Group

This is a bit of a delay compensation nightmare/rabbit-hole, and anyone else that does this doesn't compensate at all so it doesn't matter to them, but we're working on making this work with proper compensation

5. Dynamic Scaling of Plug-in GUI
Some Plug-ins are very small.

Fortunately a lot of fantastic plug-in manufacturers are working on building Hi Res GUIs for our HD display on this system, it'll be nice to see all of them this way.

6. Indication of recallsafed sections on the Channel view
The ability to toggle safeparameters directly in the channel view.

The A, S and B indicators to the right of the fader do indicate the status. Being able to control things from the CTMs is our intention but not in Channel View, it would be dangerous to turn on or off plugins 48v or direct outs when a user is just trying to focus the CKM to that parameter set.

7. Updated Snapshotsection
(See DiGico T)

Anything in particular you're looking for, or just everything?

8. Sub-numbering of snapshots
When creating a new snapshot between snapshot 1 and 2, the new snapshot should be named eg. 1.1. This way theater guys do not have to reorder any cue notes, midi programming etc.

Working on it

9. Initial Data/Default Show
Should be un-deletable

This IS un-deletable. In Options > System, Clear Console returns to default state

10. Dynamic Automation
To timecode

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, do you mean writing timeline based moves using LTC as the timeline?

11. Mix function on channel compressors
For easy parallel compression (X32/M32).

Agreed this is a GREAT idea, we definitely should do this

12. Renaming of Mute Groups and Functionswitches
For easy navigation and understanding.

Working on it

13. Deeper ingration of events
The ability to access all parameters of input/output channels. (Digico Macros), Yamaha userdefined Keys, Behringer etc. eg. An event that toggels send on/off of send 1-4 on inputch. ch. 13

You might hate that you asked for this the events actions and triggers lists are about to be a LONG LONG bunch

14. iPad app
A absolute must

Yep!

15. Native Offline Editor for Mac

When it comes to prioritization, this ends up pretty low, especially since we're a small team (much smaller than I'm sure you think), we would have to forego features and bug fixing in order to do this.

16. Userdefined Knoblayout
Containing plug-in parameters. For quick acces to reverb time, delay feedback etc. and also a specific ch. parameters eg. AUX 2 level for ch.15

How would you like to do this?

17. Postfader insertpoint
This is needed when using eg. Dan Dugan etc.

How about an Automixer plugin?

18. An easy way to acces the attention channels parameters
Attentioning a a channel is a dead-end for other parameters than solo, mute and faderlevel.

Why is that? You can adjust literally every parameter from the EXT Screen except aux send pan.

19. Banksafe reshuffles banking
When Banksafing, banking is reordered, so that the banksafed channels does not live on-top of other channels.

On it

20. Ability to disable flipping of parameters other than Auxes
It can be dangerous to flip eg. Gains by mistake.

Could be a very useful option to toggle that. Many users actually use flipping gains, as well as gate thresholds when doing large festival input lists.

21. Ability to route the Monitor outputs to a Matrix
Many Monitor engieneers route the Monitor output to a matrix and put comunicationchannels into theese, so that com. is always comming through. The headphone amp should be able to pickoff from a matrix as well.

On it

22. Ganging of channels
The ability to gang two or more channels permanently. It is an issue to eg. stereolinking channels durring show/changeover and audio is interrupted.

Agreed!

23. Master Safe Channels
The ability to Recall safe channels above a show-level. Recall safe only applies to the loaded show. A global safe that overwrites on a global level would be very good to have. Global Recall safe the master fader, speaker or DJ eg.

How would you expect this to function in terms of saving?

24. Shared I/O between consoles (port-to-port patching)
The ability to share local inputs between consoles (com lines etc) without having to go through the stagerack.

I can't tell you enough how much I want this...

25. Boot Engine from console
For Theater installations

Would be nice!

26. Venue screen on Master Touchscreen
As an option so an external monitor is not necessary.

Probably not happening anytime soon, unless you really don't mind about 30 tabs (it takes up slightly more than that actually to get all of the screens/options/paging into the smaller screen size in a usable way)

27. Onscreen keyboard.
To eliminate the need of a external keyboard.

This was actually part of the original design, just hasn't come together yet.

28. Pr. channel alternative input.
For instant spare mic routing, in case of eg. mic failure.

Also part of the original design, how would you like to patch this?

29. Mix Minus
Essential for Broadcast workflows.

Working on it

30. VCA to AUX
Quick monitormixes from VCAs (Midas).

I'm definitely a huge fan of MCAs, I'm surprised no one did it before the pro series, and no one else has done it since... yet

31. Groups to AUX
Send groups to AUXs

This is also a delay compensation mess, but we're trying to figure out how to do this without screwing up ADC

32. Compatability with other AVB manufacturers
Direct compatability with eg. MOTU, Pivitec etv.

In the middle of this right now... Did you know L Acoustics, D&B, and Meyer all support AVB into system processors?

33. Surround.

I'd be excited to see when people actually start using surround in live, obviously there are some broadcast implications that are interesting...

34. AVB Insert
The ability to insert via AVB

Definitely, although ADC isn't really achievable in any useful way there.

35. History Waveform on meter section
Like the S6

Yes! you may have noticed there is space there next to the meter up top :)

36. RTA on inputs and outputs

How/where and how many channels would you like to see?

37. Easier way to make stereochannels / busses
Right-clickining is not very fast. Maybe it could be done easier from the universe view.

Any ideas? fortunately most people aren't making stereo channels mid show

38. Fadermoves in Multiselect mode.
When touching two or more faders in multiselect mode the movement is multiplied - very dangerous feature!

I agree, and that goes all the way back to 2004's D-Show.

39. New Sends on fader mode.
When an input is attentioned, all aux faders flips to show the attentioned channel contribution to the Aux. Very fast! (X32/DiGico)

So the Sends to the Auxes are shown in place of the Aux Masters?

40. Auto-naming of FX Returns
When returning eg. an effect from the rack the input of that rack should be transfered to the returnchannels for quick setup. Eg. Naming a send "Hall" taking Bus-out into the rack, returning the effect to a stereochannel should automatically rename it to "Hall"

Only in the case of that channel having default naming? You'd like the naming to be based on a setting or preset within a plugin rather than the plugin itself?

41. EQ on faders easy reset.
Reset at frequencyband by eg. "Muting" or the color button beneath the fader. The "Default+fadertouch" is not effective. A/B function would be great like digico has. Toggels from set Gain/att. to 0 to A/B the effect.

So a toggle to unity?

42. GEQ Toggle mode
The GEQ togglemode should never exit the GEQ but continue to toggle low/high frequencybands. Exit should be done by pressing OK or Cancle.

I actually think it absolutely should exit GEQ, I would find it confusing to press a button to enter a mode, and not be able to exit it with the same button. In the case that you're working on a 24 fader, you can create events to set dedicated function buttons to each band, that would make it very easy to toggle.


Thanks for the suggestions!

[Rudio Audio]

First of all Ryan. Thank you so much for taking time reading and responding to these request! It means a lot to be heard!

1. Quicker acces to parameters i Channelstrip Mode
The ability to use the dedicated parameter buttons to toggle between parameters. Scrolling through them is not effective.

On it.

Great!

2. Multiband Comp/Dynamic EQ for every Channel

You want to use the same one on every channel rather than a myriad of options with plugins? Would you be willing to give up other processing to do this? (such as bands of EQ in the case of DiGiCo)

I does not have to be in addition to other ch. processing. A dyn EQ on every channel would be very powerfull!

3. Flexible banking
The ability to bank independently on the left and right side of the MLM.

How would you like to do this?

I'm thinking that the MLM TFT on the left could be banking eg. fader 1-16 and the TFT on the right (Where mute groups and function switches live at the moment) could bank 17-24 (in the case of a 24D surface). Just a thought.


4. Assign Group to Group

This is a bit of a delay compensation nightmare/rabbit-hole, and anyone else that does this doesn't compensate at all so it doesn't matter to them, but we're working on making this work with proper compensation

I can imagine the headache. But it is quite a powerfull workflow being able to submix i that fashion. Good to hear that you are giving it at shot!

5. Dynamic Scaling of Plug-in GUI
Some Plug-ins are very small.

Fortunately a lot of fantastic plug-in manufacturers are working on building Hi Res GUIs for our HD display on this system, it'll be nice to see all of them this way.

Good news!


6. Indication of recallsafed sections on the Channel view
The ability to toggle safeparameters directly in the channel view.

The A, S and B indicators to the right of the fader do indicate the status. Being able to control things from the CTMs is our intention but not in Channel View, it would be dangerous to turn on or off plugins 48v or direct outs when a user is just trying to focus the CKM to that parameter set.

I know, what I meant was to be able to see what parameters are recall saved. eg. the EQ, the Comp etc. Digico has it. Maybe a red line around the tile/parameter. The only way no it to go to snapshots -> recall safe and find the channel and parameter in the matrix.

7. Updated Snapshotsection
(See DiGico T)

Anything in particular you're looking for, or just everything?

The Alias feature. Where changes on a specific eq (Actor with hat or actor without hat). can be rippled through out the show automatically where needed.
Individual Fades on every channel.
Fades on other parameters than faders. (Pan, threshold etc).


8. Sub-numbering of snapshots
When creating a new snapshot between snapshot 1 and 2, the new snapshot should be named eg. 1.1. This way theater guys do not have to reorder any cue notes, midi programming etc.

Working on it

Great!

9. Initial Data/Default Show
Should be un-deletable

This IS un-deletable. In Options > System, Clear Console returns to default state

I feel stupid. I never dared to use that feature, because I have always thought that it would initialize the whole console (deleting everything). Good to know!


10. Dynamic Automation
To timecode

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, do you mean writing timeline based moves using LTC as the timeline?

Excatly, I know this is a daunting task. Studier Vista has pulled it of. You are Pro Tools you are Avid you can do it as well :)

11. Mix function on channel compressors
For easy parallel compression (X32/M32).

Agreed this is a GREAT idea, we definitely should do this

Just do it! :)

12. Renaming of Mute Groups and Functionswitches
For easy navigation and understanding.

Working on it

Good!

13. Deeper ingration of events
The ability to access all parameters of input/output channels. (Digico Macros), Yamaha userdefined Keys, Behringer etc. eg. An event that toggels send on/off of send 1-4 on inputch. ch. 13

You might hate that you asked for this the events actions and triggers lists are about to be a LONG LONG bunch

It will be a long list! but it can be laid out in a way that makes it easy to navigate.

14. iPad app
A absolute must

Yep!

Yep!


15. Native Offline Editor for Mac

When it comes to prioritization, this ends up pretty low, especially since we're a small team (much smaller than I'm sure you think), we would have to forego features and bug fixing in order to do this.

It's not a high priority for me personally. Would much rather have all the other features.

16. Userdefined Knoblayout
Containing plug-in parameters. For quick acces to reverb time, delay feedback etc. and also a specific ch. parameters eg. AUX 2 level for ch.15

How would you like to do this?

Maybe in the same fashion you make the custom channelstrip. Touch a knob on the CKM and pres the Plugin parameter. Like a classic learn function. User defined Knoblayout could be triggered by an event or a softbutton in the universe view?

17. Postfader insertpoint
This is needed when using eg. Dan Dugan etc.

How about an Automixer plugin?

Could also work. But you would have to have plugin slots with 8 or more I/O for it to work right?

18. An easy way to acces the attention channels parameters
Attentioning a a channel is a dead-end for other parameters than solo, mute and faderlevel.

Why is that? You can adjust literally every parameter from the EXT Screen except aux send pan.

I see the attention function as a key feature on the system. It is very powerful in situations where you have to get to a channel very fast. What i want is when a channel is attentioned (with a doubletap) from the universe view, the channel is displayed on the rightmost CKM (like when a channel is selected underneath the MLM). Adjusting parameters from the external screen is really not cool or fast at all, you have to change work position and mindset, it is way to slow and lacks the tactile workflow. Making the parameters of the attentioned channel accessible with a doubletap would really speed up things!

19. Banksafe reshuffles banking
When Banksafing, banking is reordered, so that the banksafed channels does not live on-top of other channels.

On it

F#&" yeah!

20. Ability to disable flipping of parameters other than Auxes
It can be dangerous to flip eg. Gains by mistake.

Could be a very useful option to toggle that. Many users actually use flipping gains, as well as gate thresholds when doing large festival input lists.

Im not requesting you to remove it, but an option to disable it.


21. Ability to route the Monitor outputs to a Matrix
Many Monitor engieneers route the Monitor output to a matrix and put comunicationchannels into theese, so that com. is always comming through. The headphone amp should be able to pickoff from a matrix as well.

On it

Excited!


22. Ganging of channels
The ability to gang two or more channels permanently. It is an issue to eg. stereolinking channels durring show/changeover and audio is interrupted.

Agreed!

High-five!


23. Master Safe Channels
The ability to Recall safe channels above a show-level. Recall safe only applies to the loaded show. A global safe that overwrites on a global level would be very good to have. Global Recall safe the master fader, speaker or DJ eg.

How would you expect this to function in terms of saving?

I don't know what you mean. But i know it is a complicated task since a show is reconfiguring the console.

24. Shared I/O between consoles (port-to-port patching)
The ability to share local inputs between consoles (com lines etc) without having to go through the stagerack.

I can't tell you enough how much I want this...

Tell me :)

25. Boot Engine from console
For Theater installations

Would be nice!

26. Venue screen on Master Touchscreen
As an option so an external monitor is not necessary.

Probably not happening anytime soon, unless you really don't mind about 30 tabs (it takes up slightly more than that actually to get all of the screens/options/paging into the smaller screen size in a usable way)

Okay, so you've tried it. I personally like the screen, although it makes it a bit slower to setup and take down. For some it is a turnoff, they really like a all-in-one box console.

27. Onscreen keyboard.
To eliminate the need of a external keyboard.

This was actually part of the original design, just hasn't come together yet.

Quote:

Okay, good to know we are on the same page.

28. Pr. channel alternative input.
For instant spare mic routing, in case of eg. mic failure.

Also part of the original design, how would you like to patch this?

Im thinking on the same matrix as the standard input patching but every input can have two patchpoints a primary and a secondary/spare. Maybe right clicking on the patchpoint could patch the secondary patchpoint.


29. Mix Minus
Essential for Broadcast workflows.

Working on it

30. VCA to AUX
Quick monitormixes from VCAs (Midas).

I'm definitely a huge fan of MCAs, I'm surprised no one did it before the pro series, and no one else has done it since... yet

Yet....!

31. Groups to AUX
Send groups to AUXs

This is also a delay compensation mess, but we're trying to figure out how to do this without screwing up ADC

I know it is a hard one to do right.

32. Compatability with other AVB manufacturers
Direct compatability with eg. MOTU, Pivitec etv.

In the middle of this right now... Did you know L Acoustics, D&B, and Meyer all support AVB into system processors?

Great! Yeah I saw the announcements at Frankfurt! Looking forward to se how an all AVB live sound system could work out.


33. Surround.

I'd be excited to see when people actually start using surround in live, obviously there are some broadcast implications that are interesting...

Yes. Theaters are actually doing a lot of surround here as well.


34. AVB Insert
The ability to insert via AVB

Definitely, although ADC isn't really achievable in any useful way there.

No you are right.

35. History Waveform on meter section
Like the S6

Yes! you may have noticed there is space there next to the meter up top :)

oooooooooooh!

36. RTA on inputs and outputs

How/where and how many channels would you like to see?

Just on the zoomed-in channel view on Inputs, outputs etc.

37. Easier way to make stereochannels / busses
Right-clickining is not very fast. Maybe it could be done easier from the universe view.

Any ideas? fortunately most people aren't making stereo channels mid show

No, not mid show. But if you are beginning to think the S6L as a house desk where you need to move quickly during changeovers this is important. You dont what to grab that mouse all the time. I'm thinking: when multi selecting two or more channels in the universe view, you get an option (next to layout assign?) to make stereo -> then a confirmation dialog. The other way around. Selecting one or more stereochannels in the universe view -> an option appears to make mono -> a confirmation dialog appears.

38. Fadermoves in Multiselect mode.
When touching two or more faders in multiselect mode the movement is multiplied - very dangerous feature!

I agree, and that goes all the way back to 2004's D-Show.

Time to change it then! :)

39. New Sends on fader mode.
When an input is attentioned, all aux faders flips to show the attentioned channel contribution to the Aux. Very fast! (X32/DiGico)

So the Sends to the Auxes are shown in place of the Aux Masters?

Excatly!

40. Auto-naming of FX Returns
When returning eg. an effect from the rack the input of that rack should be transfered to the returnchannels for quick setup. Eg. Naming a send "Hall" taking Bus-out into the rack, returning the effect to a stereochannel should automatically rename it to "Hall"

Only in the case of that channel having default naming? You'd like the naming to be based on a setting or preset within a plugin rather than the plugin itself?

Hmm good question. Actually, the name of the Aux feeding the Effect should be carried through not the plugin or effect name. So if the AUX is named "Hall" the effect that feeds from this aux should have the "Hall" name on the return channels. Just a thought.

41. EQ on faders easy reset.
Reset at frequencyband by eg. "Muting" or the color button beneath the fader. The "Default+fadertouch" is not effective. A/B function would be great like digico has. Toggels from set Gain/att. to 0 to A/B the effect.

So a toggle to unity?

Yes!

42. GEQ Toggle mode
The GEQ togglemode should never exit the GEQ but continue to toggle low/high frequencybands. Exit should be done by pressing OK or Cancle.

I actually think it absolutely should exit GEQ, I would find it confusing to press a button to enter a mode, and not be able to exit it with the same button. In the case that you're working on a 24 fader, you can create events to set dedicated function buttons to each band, that would make it very easy to toggle.

Hmmm...... yeah......I guess its just me.

[Karel Noon]

I'll skip the quotes and go for numbers, Ryan is there any chance to hear something for us S3L users? Some of the functions you state as "on it" would be helpful on a small system as well.

3: A&H has this functionality in the iLove series, it is a great tool, e.g. Left faders only bank inputs, right faders outputs. The more flexible you are with fader layouts the less faders you need.

7: another very powerful snapshot system was used in the old PM1, maybe take a glimpse there as well

14: Yep yep yep!

20: yes please make it an option to turn or some of the parameters to flip mode.
I had some guests getting confused ....

23: as on soundcraft VI consoles, there is a "load ISO with show" function.
Turned off safes stay in place even with a new show loaded
Turned on safes are taken from the newly loaded show

30: please please!

39: again a feature A&H incorporated in the iLive: there it is done with the mix buttons. If I press the mix button of an aux fader I can choose what channels are going to that aux.
If I press the mix button of a channel I can send that channel to numerous auxes. Very useful for monitoring: the keyboard is playing and five musicians scream "I want some key in my wedge"

41: as in Yamaha consoles: you can simply turn the frequency off again

Thanks again Ryan

AFAIK some previous Avid console had a "select mode" where you first select channels to make/break stereo, and then, when exiting mode, they are made so.

I.e. a special button on MLM to enter/exit mode. Or in Universe.

I agree, and that goes all the way back to 2004's D-Show.

And still no good idea on how to fix it. Nothing happens "at the same time" - these are just fader movements that happen sequentially (first, second, first, etc.). And any solution changing behavior for the case "two faders up" has many edge-cases that break other workflows.
