Some small enhancements for USB

[AndyB]

I've just bought an Allen and Heath mixer with built in USB, and I'm really enjoying using it to record to my iPad running MultiTrack.

I just had a few little features that I thought would be useful when recording:

- Ability to ARM two tracks, setting one as USB right, one as USB left
This would be awesome - since I plan to use the mixer to record clean guitar or bass into one channel, and distorted guitar from a miked up amp into the other channel. I can then re-amp the clean signal in my DAW if I want to.
- In-track normalisation, or an option to normalise on copy
I tried copying and pasting to see if normalisation would be applied, but it wasn't (I guess it only happens when multiple tracks are copied during a bounce-down?). It would be cool to either be able to have a setting to always normalise on copy (even with single tracks) - or to have a normalise in place feature. I'm finding that I'm setting the levels quite conservatively for USB recording, so normalise is the first thing I want to do before mixing.
- An option to use a slight limit or compression, in place.
It would be cool to be able to do a compress-in-place to a track... since I want to normalise but find only a couple of places which actually hit full level. A gentle compress on normalise would allow a bigger boost to the whole track.

Thanks!

Just wanted to add one more...
Would it be possible for the recording meter to have some sort of peak hold, or at least a 'red light' if max signal is reached? This would enable higher USB levels to be recorded. At the moment it's impossible to see if you're peaking.
