Summed Peaks - Helping eyes and brains

[Stroudy]

Ability to view multi-channel peaks as Stereo or Mono Peaks/Waveforms to assist editing and general viewability.

This should be a simple toggle action.


It's particularly useful to assist in editing multichannel audio with high channel counts. Tracks need to be excessively vertically zoomed to see the waveform effectively, obscuring other tracks that the user may be using as reference and editing to.

Also useful when the user is mixing multichannel with Stereo and Mono files on the same track

+1, as it was in old good Samplitude

Something like this could definitely help. I suppose summed would be ok for most things. For some things, it could be nice to be able to selectively hide/show channels without muting them. Maybe some people would sometimes prefer a sort of overlayed view more like what we see on folder tracks.

But yeah any option would be better than what we have now.

I've put together a workaround for endorka (Jennifer) in this thread few years ago:
Multichannel channel mode for multichannel items?

Happy to report that this is now in dev.

Many thanks to the team for implementing A Force Mono Peaks feature

I love it already
So much cleaner, and a great addition to toolbar

Thanks a lot, dear devs! So much more intelligable peaks when arranger zoomed out vertically! With rectify view I can clearly see all waveforms even with 50 tracks in arranger view no matter it's mono, stereo or 6 channel wav file! No need for often zooming from now - hence faster workflow! I'm happy 😊
