Dodgy drive? Be interested to know the result, thanks!

Yes, that's really a big issue - deciding on the feature-set, and then how the chosen function set is arranged across the surface.

OK I'll see what I can do - I've downloaded an image of it now so at least I can see where all the buttons and knobs are physically located!

BTW the zooming and scrolling via the jog wheel is great! A real time and ergonomic saver!

Last time I became fully conscious after one of these bouts I had the impression of several fader-tops embedded in my forehead. Please help me out!
LMFAO Yeah those X-backs can be very dangerous and happen at any time - don't worry, brother, help is on it's way!

Hehe...
