Firmware Wishful Thinking for the Sound Devices 833

Wish we could have greater customizability with our meter viewing?

I specifically want to be able to pick very specific tracks and not others to be displayed.

For example, if I’ve got a simple day with just doing ISOs of a boom and a lav then it would be nice to *only* see those on the screen.

We can then be monitoring big thick bold bars, rather than skinny little bars which are cluttered up with all the unused tracks on screen as well.

Feels strange to me that I’ve gone backwards in this area compared to my Zoom F8n/F4 & Zaxcom Maxx, I really deeply miss this when compared to the crowded Sound Devices 833 screen. Monitoring felt so nice to watch when I went back to using an F8n last week.

Unless there is some secret shortcut which gives me this precise surgical level of control over what meters are displayed that I missed reading in the manual?

I think the Sound Devices 6 Series can’t do this either, am sure a Sound Devices 633 user would appreciate this flexibility as well if they got a firmware update as well!
