Did About click and did not see it. Am finishing a new UserTracks so wanted to make sure stereo was there. The new UT does not seem right, but could also be my sourcing.

I can't expand my laptop screen any bigger so the Audio button is always overlapped. If I select the Normal screen window then the Audio button is completely behind the mixer window. Are they going to fix that soon? It's not a deal breaker but some people might view this as sloppy programing. Just a thought. Note that this was brought up several times during beta.
