Yes you are right John, after the initial shock of the change which was done quickly simply because it was a one-off deal on offer, and the help of a very good friend who knew I was struggling with the technology and bought me the two DVDs of introduction which in turn showed me exactly what I was doing wrong, I finally began to settle down and appreciate just how much the T3 is capable of.

Having said that, unless you are prepared to accept the challenge of learning a completely different system, I wouldn't recommend the 'feint-hearted' to go down that road.... stick with the Technics instruments which are still a pleasure to play.
