Design craft vs muscle memory 2

Probably the best bit of software I use is Apple Logic Studio. Imagine Illustrator that works with sound and you are only still halfway there. It is beautiful, powerful and intuitive. And it's even better now that I bought this Editors' Keys keyboard. It has all the key command shortcuts written on the colour-coded keys. It makes editing and recording sound even more of a pleasure than before.

The problem is that it is an American layout. And not a standard one at that. All of the keys are in different places, not the QWERTY keys, but the odd ones that you use more often than you'd imagine. Plus, the § key is next to the space bar on the left and I keep pressing it when I try to press Apple...

I'm having to rethink how I use a keyboard.

Which is exactly the same as me retuning my guitar I suppose.

Which is good for me... I suppose.
