    Is it possible to put your own name under the knobs/macros, that are midi controlling a plugin, or even a parameter on the internal plugins?

    Some 3rd party synths i'm controlling, have weird names, so its pretty impossible to know whats what just looking on the name bound to my knobs. =/

    No. It would be good.

    Oh, really? Weird. Feels like something they must have forgotten to add then, as its so essential, imo anyway.

    Whenever I can't figure out a knob I add a new page, assign the feature I'm looking for to a new knob.

    Actually I do that everytime, even when stuff is labellled right, rather than sorting through 17 pages.

    Well, i have made my own templates to the Synths/Effects i use, having not that many parameters assigned, about 2 pages or so..but still, i dont like to just take a chance on what some do, instead of just going for it directly.

    I cant bother with assigning to a new knob each time i wanna edit something, as theres usually a lot more than 1 knob im going for.

    Maschine for me is still very much mouse orientated. It's a hell of alot easier to tweak a VST parameter via mouse.

    Some things are easier with the mouse yes. I bought Maschine to avoid the mouse as much as possible, even if i have to dive a few menu's more. I have good faith in future updates though, its still pretty young. :)
