I was surprised... very pleasantly : menus are faster than on OS 9, the buffer size can be reduced more than before, the "Windows" menu correctly display all the opened windows names (it was not the case for Jaguar) et Exposed is very efficient on a lot of opened windows.

The upgrade will be made very simply via a combination of keys and a MIDI file freely downloadable on the Mackie web site. The next shipped Mackie Controls will integrate this 2 modes (Mackie and Logic). Notice that a HUI emulation can be added on the 2 surfaces for 99 USD.
