Hi George,
Just curious. Does the click come from the main outputs? If so wouldn't that be a little distracting during performance to have the instrument produce clicks through the PA system every time you select a new patch?

Hello Andrew,
As someone who has used both the monochrome touch screens and color touch screens from a couple of different companies, here is my experience with them;
When playing outdoors (sunny or overcast) it is sometimes impossible to view the screen at all because of glare. This is true with monochrome and color.
The monochrome fairs better inside with stage lighting. There have been times when the backline was supplied and I had to use an instrument with a color touch screen and when the stage lights are the same color as sections of the screen, those sections all but disappear.
So basically I don't really care for the touch screen idea.
