nobody has mentioned latency?

it's fine if you program with a mouse, but if you want to PLAY an instrument, even bang beats into Live, latency is a little bitch that must be destroyed.

5mS, and no more, that's my demand.

Worst part of VSTs: Not being able to assign a preset to a clip in Live.
:(

The best improvement for workflow would be for VST creators to use less screen space for the GUI. More intelligent UI design better use of space and less insistence on looking like hardware knobs would be most welcome.

Better integration of VST parameters into the host GUI is the responsibility of the host software IMO.
Thanks, this is the kind of feedback I was looing for.

Try dragging your clip into the browser. That works for me. Or am I misunderstanding you?
