Actually, the Ms Pinky Maxi Patch application's file browser is so primitive, they suggest you use iTunes as a music library front end. So in effect, I browse iTunes using the coverflow view, and drag and drop the file/song onto the appropriate Maxi Patch deck. However, it's really not

But that's not the point - what you're saying is fine if you already know what track you're going to play next. For someone like me who for years has been used to flicking through his records to decide what to play next Coverflow would be ideal. Things seem to leap out more to us simple minded
