Didn't read the whole thread.. some MD Ideas:
1. The shrinked mute window is too big or not at the perfect spot in my opinion.. i always wonder about the name of the parameter behind it.
2. Being able to switch to a sound by holding function and hitting one of the sequencer keys while mute is switched on
3. Being able to see if a sample is used in any kit or not. I'm trying to delete some samples and don't want to skip through every machine in every kit to see if it's used anywhere or not.
4. A way to see if a kit is used in any pattern without having to look through all existing patterns..
Maybe this is all possible already, don't have the latest OS installed
