Default The Additional Marker Lanes

Now that we have up to 5 marker lanes, I am curious what some of you might be using the extra lanes for? Like many, I always used the single one we had to mark things like intro, verse, chorus, etc. But now that we have up to 5 I'm not sure what might be best use of the additional ones.

In post we have all sorts of categories we can use them for.

In music I'd probably keep the song structure in one like you do. Composition notes to yourself in another. Client notes in one (if you have clients). Depends how complicated your work gets

Composition notes...hadn't thought of that. I like that idea.
I don't do any post work, so I doubt I'll be using it for any of those.

I had thought of using one lane to mark important hit/sync spots when scoring for video/film/trailers. That seemed to work nicely

I prefer just a single lane. Less clutter. Keep it simple. Best for my workflow!
