Good that you want to that - I have mine stretched across the whole window.
To make them bigger just click on the right end and drag rightwards (if they are docked if undocked there is a little triangle at bottom right that you can click and drag on.

Things will probably get even better for the next release - the developers are experimenting with splitting the meters - using the latest alpha nightly releases I now have my record meter occupying about 3/4 of the window width and the playback one just 1/4

Also if nothing further is changed, there will still be a combined playback and recording meter as an alternative to separate meters.waxcylinder wrote:Things will probably get even better for the next release - the developers are experimenting with splitting the meters - using the latest alpha nightly releases I now have my record meter occupying about 3/4 of the window width and the recording one just 1/4
