Speaking about interface from hell, well one could ponder for a
while and plenty of these comes to mind, the DSS1, just used as synth
was Ok but the sampling arrangement and later layer sections are
truly a hell, not to mention the hell of all hells the original
TX16W OS! The K150 was not to fun to deal with either and the K5000
one key punch for one harmonic step was truly a pain in the arse and
there are lots of VSTs with insane interfaces.

Even the K2000 and SY99 have "tedious" interfaces.

One knob one parameter are still a hard bet to knock over.
