The issue for me is that the mixer used to give me a clear overview of the mix - which is surely the entire point of it? This included plugin states. It took single mouse clicks to activate and deactivate plugins. Hover buttons are technically clever but a nightmare practically. and if these changes are to suit a hardware controller that (I suspect) a tiny proportion of users will buy (useless for me, for instance, recording and editing on the road), then the cart is surely before the horse. If necessary, give us a choice of two mixer window formats. That would please everyone.
