I understand this, and have felt like that at times with the A4, but it does get easy the more familiar you are with it. If it was a single voice synth, meaning you didn’t have to jump between 4 tracks, it would seem a lot more straightforward… it’s the ‘which track am I editing?’ moments that still catch me.
Saying this, it’s possible to use a dedicated controller with it and take a lot of the menu diving/track switching out of the equation.
My A4 is probably the last synth I would sell. I love it. So much I bought a second one.
