Like I > said hte Linux implementations are quite a way behid in UI terms. Actually I've used the Nord editor (not extensively, but I've played). It is very nice indeed, but like I said complicated patches just take up too much space, especially when you work at a "lower level" so to speak (with lots of amps, and scaling, etc).
