It's even worse than that, 'cause of the shift key -- I don't mind the
matrix at all, but I hate the mono evolver's shift-key.  I think it
could be made a lot nicer with some tweaking, e.g., make a double-click
on a _row_ button enter shifted state for that row (and a single click
exit), but Dave hasn't seemed interested in doing it.

In some ways I like the mono-evolver _better_ because the steppy control
knobs are much nicer for some parameters than the PEK's smooth knobs
(I think it was a mistake to make them all smooth, they just drive me
crazy sometimes...).
