Save/load named comps (sets of takes from multiple media items)
A/B or cycle through saved comps to audition/compare
Dockers and toolbars:

Editing behavior can be customized separately for media items, envelope points, MIDI editing
Track input FX chains:
FX in the input FX chain only run when record armed, and only affect the signal coming in
use MIDI or audio input, and can be set to output MIDI or audio independent of the input format
