Hi Spalding
It works both ways, using sliders to change sounds may be stupid to you, but to most European players its quite natural, and if you talk to them, you will find they have difficulty understanding why the UK/US players are so transfixed on OTS, as to them using the same performances for each gig/Song seems pointless.
The thing you have to understand, is that everyone is different (Something Diki also has problems comprehending) and just because they like or do something different to you, does not make them stupid. (Unless you believe freedom to allow people to express themselves and do what they want, (Within the law) should be curtailed of course)
Regards

Bill
