Bingo. Though, I don't think FL or any software makes hardware obsolete, I do think such programs make the arguments of the gear whores all that more pompous. But, to be honest, the most slagging I've seen done on FL is by people who still use Fast Tracker or now Renoise. So, you have different key commands/mouse commands for the same results in the end. Big whoop? But, yeah, seems to annoy people that learned the quirky non-friendly FT interface quite a bit sometimes. ;)
