I’m interested in an Octratrack suddenly. I would love to poll you all on this question:
How key are the new shortcuts on the Mk2. Do they substantially help your workflow? or is it something pretty minor once you come to grips with the workflow? I actually don’t care about the new buttons , new looks, shiny new screen. But I do care about the workflow, if its substantially easier I’d get the Mk2. If not, I’d be happy with the Mk1. Thanks in advance guys

It’s about deciding and go with a decision. After that it is all about quality time spend.

Apparently that’s the only thing that makes a difference in the workflow ! 
@stutech and other seems to appreciate the new buttons.
I admit that even after 3.5 years with OT sometimes I can confuse button combinations in that area :
Mixer, Project and Recording Setup are in the same axe, hence confusion.
Another problem is that shorcuts depends on Grid Recording mode on or off.
I wonder if MKII share this…

makes a difference for me, yes !
the more you are a poweruser,
the more you are dayly on the OT,
the more might the difference shrink down.
but probably not to zero
