Try this: put a Spectrum after an EQ8, or before. Graphical settings i.e block and refresh set as the same. The y-axes are totally inconsistent with the frequency displays. they should be the same as the y-axes are both in dB. Different material shows +10dB difference. Or am I missing something?

If you expand EQ8's spectrum you'll find some settings to adjust it to your liking... but you're not wrong and this is fixed in the latest beta L11.0b5.
