### What is the problem?

Stereo tracks are displayed as mono lines in the mixer view (`Sample Track Mixer 2/3`) whereas it is displayed as 2 lines (R & L) in the `Global Mixer 3/3` view for the `Delay` , `Reverb` and `Dry Mix` tracks.

### What should this feature achieve?

As the Tracker + and the Mini handle stereo samples, it would be awesome to reflect the pan spread of each track in the main mixer and for the synths.

### Are there any workarounds?

### Any links to related discussions?

@djenzar done. A nice complement to my bug report:

> [@UI Inconsistency at showing levels in the mixer](https://backstage.polyend.com/t/ui-inconsistency-at-showing-levels-in-the-mixer/17448):
>
> Bug Description As this question was coming up: [https://backstage.polyend.com/t/how-to-mute-synths-on-t-or-mini/](https://backstage.polyend.com/t/how-to-mute-synths-on-t-or-mini/) A short description of the ui inconsistency: samples, midi and synth engine are sound sources. These can go to track 1-8. Synths and Midi can go to track 1-16. In the mixer levels are displayed for track 1-8, you can change volume and mute the track. Synths have their dedicated metering. Problem: Levels on the track meters are displayed, as long as there are samples on this par…
