You are right, I did a test (bouncing, importing, inverting and crossplaying
the same songfile in 5.0 and 5.5) and the filters aren't identical. Seems as
if the MK I filter is resonating a bit more.
Unlike you, I ain't no Mr. Golden Ears (I am serious about that), so
eventually I might not even have noticed this, but in an A/B comparison of
the files the differences just became pretty much apparent, even without the
phase cancellation test.

I also agree with you that the ease of editing the most important parameters
is gone now - not because of the simple lack of proper sliders (as Ben said,
it's all there once you recall the EXS Mk I settings) but because of the
tiny-ness of the new modulation sliders.
IMO It'd be nice if one could switch between "classic" and "MK II" GUI
modes.

Regards,
Sascha
