Would it be possible to get more rows and columns in, or to keep the 
size down using the type of potentiometer that they use in the Zvex 
Ooh-Wah and Seek-Wah? I know that smaller knobs are more fiddly, but 
with 'set and forget' stuff, it could be useful...

If not, then I definitely prefer the 4x4 layout. It seems to be a lot 
clearer and intuitive.
