Me too.  The immediate difference is lost now that the countdown affects both 
types of recording, and I'm also forgetting I have to manually click on a 
MIDI track to arm it.  I'm having the opposite problem, losing MIDI while 
recording on an audio track.  Color coding does seem like a good idea.  Use 
whatever color I didn't use in my book.  :)

Hrm.  No, the book will have to change slightly, but it's a small edit.  Just 
remove the word "red" and it's probably enough.  "A segment will emerge...."

So yes, I think this is OK to sneak in.  My vote would be to make the audio 
preview blue.

For that matter, it might not be a bad idea at all to make audio segments come 
up using a non-default color by default.  Such as...  Blue.  It would make 
them distinctive if segment previews aren't on.

(Blue!  May I suggest #b6d5ff as a starting point...)

Updating previews as you go would be nifty, but I'd put it 
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down on the list.  Like for 2.0 maybe.  :)
