Mixer Overhaul/Improvements (FL Studio 13)

Since mixing is one of the most essential parts of music production that defines a great quality DAW to work with, here's my list of things I would like to see added/improved for the Mixer window in a future FL Studio Update. (Some of them have been mentioned in older topics, but I decided to re-unite them in a visual manner)

Pre/Post Fader for Mixer Track Sends:

Fairly simple,
Is the send signal affected before or after the Volume Fader from the mixer insert?
A handy feature that probably many people would like to have.
Also gives purpose for the Channel Volume and the Volume Multiplier to be adjusted when sending the signal as pre-fader to another mixer insert for further processing.

Peak RMS + Additional Values:

A lot of things to take in, at first, but it's really straight-forward.
- While there is still the lovely peak meter (displayed in light green), a peak RMS meter (displayed in purple or any other colour) would be greatly useful to see and understand the average loudness of the signal that is coming through that Mixer Insert.
- Pan values being displayed on the Pan knobs are an extra, but it can be pretty neat when mixing a lot of tracks and when you need to know the specific Pan values for each Mixer Inserts. (It's weird that this hasn't been added alongside the Hint Values from the Mixer Volume Faders in the 12.1 update)
- Additional values, such as the Peak Max and RMS Max are also quite useful to see. (Maybe also make it an option for the peaks to have no drop-off on the meter)
In order to leave space for these values, the Hint Values from the Mixer Volume Fader could be placed below as shown here (or vice-versa):
Image
(Also, it would be nice if we could type in dBFS values for the Volume Faders)

+100 Mixer Insert Tracks:
Just like it was done for the Playlist tracks, make it also possible for the Mixer Insert tracks, so that we don't have to load an instance of FL Studio VSTi for futher mixing... :roll:

Thank you for reading this! :)
Can't wait for future updates!

+1 on pre/post fader sends. You can already do ...
