How about the undo feature? how many times can u undo? Will there be like a pop up screen where u can see the different actions and undo in more steps? like in Cubase ?
Im very curious about the touch senstive knobs. Can u set up each knop to be touch sensitive or all they all just always touch sensitive or not?
Can u control your external midi out hardware with the knobs? and will the Ren save these settings?
And can the touch sensitivity affect any VST or MPC setting? or are they just a few?
Can I for instance affect the pitch of a sample by touching the knob? or the attack off a vst synth? or the delay time of a vst plugin?
Will u be able to customize the program, or the hardware, in any way? like keyboard shortcuts, functions u dont want, or want to see etc? skins? coulor, intensity etc of the pads?
Is there gonna be any latency compensation in the software? Like when u have alot off vsts loaded in?
Will it be able to load old AKAI format sample cds?
When will we see some more videos?!? 
ok, I'm going to number these, for ease of reply:
1. there are 100 levels of undo. it's designed to be editable with a single button press. Undo or redo. continued presses cycle through. We currently dont plan on an undo list.
2. they're all touch sensitive by default. this is needed for the UI. this is used for automation recording, and when yiu touch a knob in program edit, and various other pages, it displays the value of the knob. you can laso use them to trigger effects or filters etc with the 16 qlinks on the main page by using the QLINK TRIGGER BUTTON. when that's pressed, you can set each qlink to either jump to its max or its min range by touching it. the idea is you cna do something like trigger a delay for a dub snare or something like that.
3. yes. in program edit on a midi track, you have 96 assignable controls. you can set them to any midi CC you want. this is automatable and it saves with the current project. It just occured to me that it wuld be aswesome to save presets here, so you could have, say an access virus preset or a nord lead preset or whaever... hmm.
4. not with version 1.0 but we'll be taking requests for versions above that.
5. there wont be any auto PDC in version 1.0, and honestly, im hesitant to put it in at all. if you put in a plugin like a look ahead limiter, then all of a sudden your pad playing would take a massive digger. im almost tihnking it might be best to have a display somewhere to show if a plugin is causing latency.
6. yes, provided they are readable in your computer. Mac's should be able to see all the partitions. Windows can only see the first 1 or two, but there's a 3rd party app that will let you access partitions beyond the first.
7. I'm actually heading to new york in the next week or so to shoot a video with a confidential artist. Stay tuned!
