All new guis are sucking valuable resources

Again, I really don't care how the UI is done, vector or bitmaps, as long as it's user-friendly. I'm not purchasing audio software with the criteria that it has to be vector-based.

Nothing wrong with that, it might not even be the case that a vector UI performs any better (my guess it's actually opposite). I'm perhaps referring more to design decisions than actual technical implementation. Computer UIs are in general not built out of faux chrome and bakelite potentiometer knobs, there's no reason why VSTs should be.

Anyway, U-he UIs are resizable to the same extent it's practical to resize vector UIs, advantages need to be looked elsewhere.

When I was first learning Zebra 2, this was a valuable approach that kept me from becoming overwhelmed. Now that I understand Zebra 2, I benefit greatly from the see-it-all approach of Redux.

I agree, the piecemeal information-drip of the default layout is great for getting to grips with Zebra, but now that I know how everything works (that's not to say I've 'mastered' Zebra) it's great to get a big layout with everything visible at a glance.

Anyway, interesting to get your take on it, Urs.

Personally, I really like the look of Redux as well, although that's largely just window dressing.
