Bug Description
I propose to switch to the RGB (GL) waveform for both main waveforms as overview waveforms as well. The user can always set back to one of the many other waveform options.
* RGB`s are the most useful waveforms, as they display many nuances of the track`s spectrum at a glance.
* No negative performance impact compared to the current default (filtered GL)
* The filtered GL waveforms are in current skins are flawed, e.g. lp:1321562
* We can apply separate color config for RGB (GL) waveforms using <SignalRGB$Color> key from within the skin. Allows to have e.g. x-ray, spectrum, or colorblind colors
* Other software brag about having "vibrant" waveforms, so we should show-off.
My vote is going RGB (GL) by default, i`d be happy if we decide for the 1.12 release.

Hm, Filtered (GL) is super slow for me compared to GLSL. I was planning on making GLSL the default purely for performance reasons.
We could make a GLSL RGB waveform. I agree it's really useful compared to the regular filtered waveforms.
