The TI Vcontrol and powercore Virus are exactly like this, you dont see ANYONE asking for all the options/params on one page, you seem to be alone with this thought (or to lazy to implment it.)

I sit 3-4ft from my PC in the sweet spot of my monitors (like 99% of daw users) and I can see everything perfectly. Wouldnt be able to read shit though on your poorly thought out plug with "crappy knobs."

Why complicate something that can be simple? No one wants to make something harder than it needs be. Im aware the virus is a complex synth, thats why Access breaks it down into the relevant sections on different pages. Something you seem to have trouble understanding.

Well, did you make the editor purely for yourself? No, I am sure I will not be the only one complaining about this editors gui, layout, poor though-out size/read outs.
