Get rid of 90% of the clutter in the GUI. After spending more time in FL Studio and Ableton, I fail to see how putting every button imaginable promotes better workflow. It still has one of the best piano roll views.

You should only see what you use. I've gotten rid of a lot of the clutter by customizing these views. You can get rid of all those buttons. I've even used key bindings to disable certain hot keys, so I don't accidently graze one and do something unintended. You can also customize the upper menus (File, Edit, View, etc) and save your own trimmed down version. Also in the track pane you can customize those tab views at the bottom, so you only see what you want to see. -- Gerry Peters

Yes, how a drum plugin sounds is inconsequential.

I liked the 8 bit graphic look of Ableton. I bought Reason for it's eye candy. Battery and Drumcore don't have a pretty GUI like the other drummer apps.
