You could have a bunch of different meters open with space left for other plugin windows to be opened up and not be covering any of your edit or mix window.

Now that would be the most logical use for me, with a third display .

Default Re: Using 3/multiple screens with Pro Tools

I am also drawing a blank on how/why to have 2 MIX windows or 2 EDIT windows. Now having a duplicate has purpose and I have made that happen with HDMI monitors by using an active HDMI splitter(for me, I use that on the EDIT window so I can have a second portable screen parked at various spots around the studio like by the drums or in the vocal booth so a person can self-record). That is easy and cheap(active splitters are only around $36) as long as you use screens with the same resolution(all of mine run at 1920x1080).

I used a 3rd screen for a long time(and hope to again soon) so I could keep some things up all the time, but not blocking MIX or EDIT windows(such as the big counter, Memory locations, system usage and FabFilter ProQ 3, for the hi-res metering and spectrum readout)
