This seems like a simple request that is available in every other DAW I have used. Allow for the Input channel meters to display the input signal while Studio one is recording.

When tracking a live band, you need to monitor the input signal throughout the song. Not having this simple option really hinders using studio one for live tracking of a band.

Please see this old video that explains Record and Monitor buttons.

Also, in Studio One's Mixer, you can show the input channels:

The question is not about MONITORING. It's about METERING. If i monitor through hardware, and monitor button is OFF6 meteing is also OFF when recording. This is ridiculous.

This issue have been adressed for years now and wasn't an issue until S1 3.5 or something, dont remember exactly. It's a VERY basic feature that I hope Presonus will bring back SOON. At least give us a hint that they know about this

Also, about that video about record and monitor buttons, in that version of S1(S1 2 i believe) in the video it actually worked as it should in terms of monitoring the meters when recording. As in all other DAWs. But not anymore
