this is bad design, i think, rather than a bad system. i bet i can
reset any parameter on my alesis quadraverb by using the front panel
buttons faster than you can use a mouse to reprogram a similar
parameter set unless all the parameters are on screen for the edit
process.

the problem is that there seem to be vastly more windows programs that
are in the "inspired" category these days than there are for the
mac. plus, the hardware costs a lot more, and the only decent audio
interface for a laptop that i know of (the VxPocket) only comes with
windows drivers.
