Some things about beta 8:

– I would say some of the menus are still fairly confusing and could be disarmed a little. The source menu in beta 7 was perfect already, so maybe it’s just an oversight. In beta 8, the right-click menus for the source and input selectors are identical, containing all options for both buttons. Also, there are some options in that menu (fader, meter, bounce) that would probably serve best if they were only in the track menu (right-click on header).

– There’s a crash when selecting “delete group track” from those source/input button menus. It works normally when you select it from the track menu (right-click on header).

– Something goes wrong when you create a second master group… input/source selectors appear on the master tracks.

– If you use horizontal meters on track headers, the SMR button group gets pushed to the right a little too far, regardless of horizontal track size.

– It’s possible still to unhide effect tracks with ctrl-h, although they have a little graphical issue here. If you remove it eventually, the help text for the minimize lane button points to this shortcut.
