Per plugin TCP level indicator + auto unity?
I spend inordinate time with multiple effects chains going back and balancing levels between plugins.
Which is exacerbated by some plugins not having output level controls, an while some have input level meters most don't have output.
It would be "nice" to have a green>red input and output indicator on each plugin icon on the TCP, indicating signal present and signal hitting -18 dbfs (within a settable time frame).
Then, a button that auto trims *the output* of each one via an (optional...) block inserted in between.
Yes, I know there are plugins that sort of do this, but they're unwieldy from what I've seen, and for such a common function that is very utilitarian, I think something like this will inevitably be considered something that is expected to be present in all DAWs.
