The core of the V1 system is its software. The software controls and coordinates all the V1's hardware. And you control the software by pushing buttons. You do this using a graphics pen. As you move the pen, a pointer moves on the V1's screen. When the pointer is on top of a button whose function you wish to use (such as record swing), you press down on the pen and voila...the V1 dutifully records a swing. Integrated into every aspect of the V1 is ease of use.  Each button's operation has been thoroughly researched to make the V1 as easy to use as possible. If you can use a pen and push a button, you can use the V1. It's that easy.
