Topic: Anyone else feel like you NEED to use a mouse now?

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

With the way everything is laid out with the samplers and new features, I feel like it's a little difficult now to just use hardware or the laptop touchpad. It's almost as if you need to have a mouse to maneuver around the layout to do things that were much simpler before. I have always use the default skin in previous versions. Might actually have to try and find a skin that's easier to navigate different features so I'm not forced to use a mouse.

Yes I agree with 100% but I think for the most part it's just the initial setup that's the problem.

After you've gotten everything setup to your liking I think you'll start using your controller more and more and the mouse less and less.

It's even more difficult when you are using turntables with TCV, but like you said...once I have things set up the way I want it, then hopefully it'll be a little easier. I saw there is a 7.4 Multi FX skin, updated for V8. Maybe I'll start using that since it has a somewhat closer feeling to what I'm used to.
