    Would'nt it be nice to have the VI's keyboard be color coded?

    That way you can see at a glance where samples are located, instrument range,
    where keyswitches are located, maybe even use a dot that appears on the depressed key showing what velocity the key was struck with.

    Last night I loaded a bunch of purcussion patches and had no idea where/how the samples were laid out and arranged unless I played every note or launched the PDF manual.

    What do the rest of you think?

    Thanks,
    David

    I think it would be good to see which keys have samples mapped, like in GigaStudio. As you say, it saves a bit of time poking about on the keyboard trying to find them, and it's particularly useful in percussion patches where there are gaps between the samples.

    I'll vote for that too.
    In addition, it would be great to see exactly where the keyswitch notes are, in a different colour.
