[FR] Metronome status overview in song title

Maybe this will be a long waited addition also for others :slight_smile:
I would like to see a metronome status overview in the song list, as each song has its own.
It would look like this:

And, if it’s possible, have this “M” active like a button. Just to switch metronome without activating song because it’s not possible while playing. In rehearsal sessions I had situations when next song should start with silence, but I forget to switch off metronome. I’m aware that this could destroy live performance. So visual overview could show.

Also vice versa - the metronome should start for one bar because it’s routed to dedicated output to have it in headphones, but if it’s off, may have big problems.

The “M” in similar view of tracks means Mute, so can decide to use an icon that depicts metronome like it’s already used - a triangle.

Of course always everything should be prepared and checked many times, but… we are humans and always is a little possibility that “s*** may happen” :slight_smile:

Also the same way maybe someone need some other indications just to have visual control of whole project.

Hi @ArthurNeeman seems - when you look my FR in last year, there are pretty big need for additional nfo there :wink:

Personal note: I usually write this - what you mention - to lyrics track (so I can see how much precount I have). Maybe will help you too for now :slight_smile:

VSTL has to judge between necessary info and available place on the screen. On stage I use only a 12" touch monitor. There is not much room left on the screen, as I also need bigger icons and text. So I’m really glad, that the devlopers keep the screen cleaned up.

Okay, I agree. But then those little things should be optional. Let’s say a category in Preferences where many visual things can be switched on and off.
