I have a 32" Dell 4k but I mostly run it in 1080p mode.

However, I've got the snappily-named 27" Samsung LS27A600NWUXXU - quad HD, which is as much as you really need at normal desktop viewing distances, combined with a pair of 23" Samsung Syncmaster 2343 monitors (one each side). That gives a lot more usable screen real estate than 4k, in my experience.
I've also got a 27 set up for portrait and landscape on an adjustable arm. Very handy.

I started doing that for work so I can have bigger than A4 stuff to read from on that screen and do my actual work on the 32.
My portrait screen is quite an old AOC 1080p but it's fine for my use and it works well in either orientation.
Dunno about loads of tracks - when I write & record I try to limit everything so a power trio could perform it! If I have more than 12 tracks I get annoyed with myself!

I'd only go down to 1 monitor if I got a mega ultrawide like the G9 Neo type thing... and I won't be getting one of them until:
1: They come in 4K
2: The 4K model is under £1000
3: I can actually afford a 3090 GPU that will probably be needed to run it at 4K

If you're not gaming, it doesn't really make much difference beyond a certain point.
I used to have a 27" monitor which was nice in a small space but I now use a 43" TV that I happily use for audio recording and watching movies.
