We talk a lot about design improvements and features; particularly when new boards (like the T5) are introduced.

Yet, some of the best players here and elsewhere are content with, say 10 style settings and a descent selection of tones.

Uncle Dave is one here who puts musicianship above technical programming expertise.

Likewise, here and elsewhere, some of the least talented players are the biggest gear heads.

Same is true on the film/photography and graphics fields. While it is necessary to know enough to get the job done, it looks to me, for instance, that the dude who knows every nuance of a lens is rarely more than an adequate, usually uninspired, photographer.

The only gear head I know who is also a superior practitioner is our man Diki.

What do you think?
