its only a waste of time if you can only think in a negative manner, the very fact im speaking with the uvi guys means its not a waste of time.
had you taken the time to ask or even take a look at the mb forum thread then you would realise the controller is a fully programmable control surface, i can use it with any software nust by loading the editor up and assigning what i want to any fader , encoder or button in less than a minute, upload it and instantly use it.
uvi can make any cc# assignments to the software they like and i can adapt around them, something others either cant or wont.
the "im directly responsible" bit means nothing to me, uvi had a list of changes they were going to implement as things went on, i daresay that one of your suggestions was one of these, unless you were able to recode and compile some of the code for them.
im not looking for a flame war here, but i hate negativeness in any form, the current progress of my controller shows its not a waste of time, the investment i have made wouldnt have been justified.
i build things because i want to, because i enjoy it and because i like doing things that havent been done yet.
the software only has shortcomings if you let them become shortcomings, if you look for faults you will find faults, and when something comes out these days and it doesnt do one thing that people want , they are up in arms demanding this that and the other, slating the product as crap and useless etc.
and to respond to your comment about use of the product, i can guarantee im doing things with it that you cant even dream of doing with it yet its amazing what a screen full of code and a custom interface can do.
