I too like the way they are set up with slow being regular, and faster
when pressed, I hope to see more gear using this style of pot in the
future...

what I would love to see in the MD is a global setting for the increment
value, So you could have it set up how it is normal +/- 1 regular, +/- 7
pressed for studio work and set it to +/- 4 regular +/- 12 pressed for
live

i believe there was also talk of, if a knob were bumped while doing 
something else (and the knobs were set to 'coarse' adjustment when up 
and fine when pressed) then your parameters would become all kindsa 
messed up. 
i had initial thoughts about the knobs like you, s, but when i got to 
know the MD (doesn't take long!) i appreciated the way they are set 
up.

conrexrecords.com/scutopus for all MD/SID tracks. i recommend 'flirt' 
if you have bandwidth.
