The Most Obvious Suggestion...

Not sure, but this might only apply to Macs: When in full-screen mode, there needs to be a way to get to the edit, view, etc. menus without having to leave full-screen mode. Come on guys...

or you can memorize the keyboard shortcuts

well, yeah you can do most things with the shorcuts, true ...

but the most obvious missing feature (more than the totally missing custom keyboard shortcuts, browser open/close shortcut, clip/note/envelope chooser shortcuts):

comprehensive mouse free operation.

ie: a way to control both up/down AND track select with an XY controller. so you can select multiple individual clips with one stick and the CTRL key, then fire them all at once.

along with the missing shortcuts and the custom user keymaps, that would almost do it ... ie

.. the only time you should ever have to touch a mouse or trackball is when you are choosing clips and dragging them onto the grid ... and it should be easy to set up (no third party programs or complicated workarounds)

EDIT: for playing Live, that is. in the studio of course you'll need mouse/trackball ..

Aha! Thanks for tip; I'm messing with the demo and tutorial didn't mention short cuts for that. I still think there should be a menu button for all that on the main screen. Too much to ask?
