I dunno what I am doing wrong, but I am not experienceing any of the problems that are being mentioned here.
ie. No problem with auto on the multi audio instruments. ie Vol on different channels is working fine here. (channelized midi data) Make sure the Multi AI has Midi 'all' selected in the parameter box for the object.
No SIDS problem.. gee I haven't had any problem like this since the ES2's filter used to pop and cutout. Note, that I also have the NI Komplete 3 bundle and use the insts regualarly.... well nearly every day! inc weekends!
As far as cusomizing your environment is converned, it shouldn't get in the way of creativety, as you can save the envs as aprt of your templates.
To be honest, I can't believe how much complaining about L7 there is. I mean, the app has never been better than it is right now. Sure, there are plenty of bugs to keep the data heads busy, but I mean, it has never been more usable.
Note : I have not had a single crash since installing 7.2.
