Hey Mike,
Even if you don't do it, I'm still thankful for all your work so far... But I will happily keep hassling you for it :)
best,

I also took a new job as Chief Technology Officer. I had been working for over ten years as VP of Networks and Information Security. So the new CTO gig is a huge change and I have had to focus on that as well as the house.

The result is that it the HAWK is actually reasonably good at handling large volumes of MIDI CC's. But if you run the sequencer, use LOTS of parameter settings AND send a lot of MIDI CC's, then you will start to see HAWK get a little sluggish.
