(1) yes, color is great but it's not enough. (2) it's a really pain to do that actually, we have to duplicate one of the pooled item, to unpool it, and then recreate all the sequence with the new pooled item. The ability to select different pooled item (I mean different colored pool item) at the same time, duplicating them, and create a new set of new pooled item for each pool would be a must. A way to manage pooled item from the project bay would help too. (3) would definetly make things more coherent. (4) is not a big problem for me, it's like mute and lock buttons. One problem about unpooling that is that you cant (or maybe I dont know how to) "repool" items after unpooling (even without modification) the item are the same on the bay, but they cant be "repooled" together ...

Pooled items should be clearly indicated also in MIDI Editor. For example clear notification on the title or menu bar. And pooled item symbols in the track/item list in the filter window. This has become even more important now when MIDI editing can be done almost entirely inside MIDI editor without looking/using arrange view. jnif
