Elektron Musical Instruments

interesting, how diverse opinions on this matter are. maybe i'm simply too demanding, 
because of my background in high-end graphics software ( k, ain't no hardware, but that's 
where workflow/ interaction is really on top of it ). just to mention a couple of points: no 
mute buttons next to the track selectors - two handed operation necessary! would they 
have made the device much more expensive?! also, the function, global, enter, cancel and 
cursor section is located on the left of the panel...not meant to be an offense, but isn't the 
majority of us right handers? the soft dials are by far too closely arranged, and the 
pressing behaviour for parameter increment change should have been inverse for my 
taste. and the last thing is that the small display is forcing parameter names to be 
abbreviated 
beyond recognition. i personally would have paid up to 300 quid plus in order to enjoy a 
bigger one, this would have cause a flatter learning curve, disburdening the mingy remains 
of my brain. of course this criticism doesn't relate to the sequencers ui, although i don't 
use it, it seems reasonable.
now that i know that i'm probably amongst the few who don't like this facet of the mm, i 
guess there isn't much chance to get a editor for it. bad luck. but thanks for the quick 
reply, appreciate that. :)

regards from berlin, p
