Default Choose How Many Channels to Display in Multichannel Meters.

It would be great to be able to select how many channels of meters are displayed on tracks with multichannel meters enabled.

For example, sometimes I have a track with 16 channels of audio but I only want to see the first four channels on the meters. It might be that there's some plugin processing (multiband processing for example) on that channel that requires the extra channels but the final output is only four channels.

Another example: On the master channel, I am now always sending a third order Ambisonic mix there (16 channels) but I have a cube decoder which has eight outputs to the interface. I only want to see the eight outputs. At present, I just put a js plugin there that passes the audio through and I deselect the last eight output pins. That works but means I end up with the eight meters squashed to the left and blank space to the right.

Another example: A VSTi has multiple outputs. Four of them go to that track and four are sent to other tracks via sends. The other tracks show the last four VSTi signals. The track with the VSTi only needs to show the first four of the eight total channels.

There are numerous other situations where this would be useful.
