Yeah, sad to experience the same. My biggest problem with M8 - in terms of usability - are the short sliders which are hard to be controlled precisely with a mouse. I thought I would be able to use my PowerMate for this, but I cannot. You can attach "send key: Right Arrow" to Rotate Right, and in this case if you can controll a sider if you want (which would be almost enough for me) but it reacts soooo slowly. The problem is in M8, i guess, as e.g. the slider that changes bw group A and B often does not work perfectly with the Left & Right Arrows on the keyboard, either.

Hello, the same problem. In mdi it isn't possibl either. I'm also searching a external speed slider that is a bit more controllable than the thiny speed slider in modul8. The only option is to try it with an usb device, but i schouldnt know wich one...
