The Mouse Wheel

Once in a while I get seriously frustrated attempting to make fine adjustments on some VST/DAW or other music software. Sure I could spend some time binding my Axiom to the damn thing but I would rather be writing than programming.

The quick and easy solution is right there. On most of our rodent pointers. Its called a mouse wheel. Why oh why oh why isnt the wheel used for control?

Well first up it seems that most instruments dont allow sliders, knobs and the rest to take 'focus'. And those that do ignore the wheel anyway.

Or maybe this is a Logitech mouse user problem since that is what I point with.

Sigh.

Are you listening DAW & VST makers?
