I've never seen such a feature. I imagine the overhead to track and 
display # of voices in use in realtime would cut into the box's 
performance. 

I assume you know ways to cut down on the number of voices being used 
(get rid of unneeded chorus, get rid of 12-pole filters, make use 
unused layers have 000:none as instruments, etc.). Others interested in 
this might search the archives for "MOP"--Maxed Out Polyphony. (I seem 
to remember some discussions.)

BTW, I am wondering if the 128 BPM limit is a hardware or software [OS] 
issue. Anyone know?
