Aaaaaarrrrrggghhhh - knobs. One of my pet peeves.
Knobs make absolutely no
sense in a GUI. There is no easy (or standard) way to control them. Note that
there are no knobs in JAMin. The parametric controls aren't even knobs. I think
this was the point he was making. Take a look at T-RackS. Lovely knobs and
litle glowing tube pictures - how lovely. But a major PITA to use. Trying to
make GUIs that look like some metal box is counterproductive. Just make the
thing work efficiently.
Two words: mouse wheel. I cannot *believe* this has not come up yet.
