VA5 suggestion

OK, or V5 if you must....

A separate plugin point for metering. Master bus certainly, and maybe even tracks. I would like to 'permanently' run a freq analyser plug on the master, without messing up normal plugin chain window operation.

I would also like to see post-fader PB peak level meters on a per channel basis.

Maybe call it a 'Metering Point'.

yeah one thats always on in a separate window, so you can still futz with plugs and see it at the same time! They got video scopes now right? maybe do it the same way

I run Waves PAZ meters all the time on the Master Buss and it works fine for me now, although I agree getting to have only one FX window up at a time is a slight pain. Maybe it's as straightforward as allowing one window each of a Track FX and a Buss FX to be shown?

Why is it so difficult to include the ability to have as many Plug windows open at once as the user likes? If they are by default opened in the same position then it would appear the same as current. If you pulled one out and repositioned it then it would remain in the new location allowing configuration that suits.

This is one feature I would really like and miss from other apps. It is really annoying that I have to constantly jump between plugs and meters etc, especially when the information displayed is interactive.

Other apps allow this, is it hard to implement or just not requested for Vegas?

I've requested it before. I have a whole second video monitor sitting there which Iwould love to populate with open plugin windows so I don't have to keep hopping around ...

I have 3 monitors and the 3rd one is a little empty when using Vegas though I would love to fill it with plugs.
When I use Nuendo it looks spactacular, all screens packed fill of interesting things, definitely the way to impress clients viewing the facility! That is only for fun but seriously it would help my work significantly if I could see the meters in different plugs similtaneously.
