being able to view the arrange and session page at the same time, i have dual monitors and this would make life so much easier , i need to see the midi/audio routing and im sick of switching back and forth ..

I can see where this may have become an issue espcially for more advanced users.
I would like to see ableton sacrifice the visual simplicity alittle and at least allow the option of a windowed interface.
(some of us have the video cards to support it, in studio at least.)
This would make it possible to see both views on even a large single monitor. And, the option to switch back to consolidated window mode would make laptop preformace optimal.

yeahhh... I like that...
What about two 'view modes'?
Composing mode and Performing mode...
Think the MIDI clip view has to be larger...
Maybe a seperate window would be great cause it's too small right now..

you are aware that the upper edge of the clip view can be dragged upwarts i pressume? you are talking about too small in width?

totally agree with this:
after a certain point the stripped down simplicity gets to be more of a hinderance to workflow
I think they should seriously consider allowing us to split the session and arrange views on seperate screens
also, allowing us to edit MIDI right in the track view like a tradition sequencer - clip view editing is awesome for some things, terrible for big picture editing - we should have both
and - the anti-popup thing only goes so far - small (very small) temporary popups for coloring / namiing clips and other routine chores would go a long way
.
