So I deleted them and, lo and behold, pressing select no longer opens the first plugin instance on a track. Awesome. Anyone making the switch from the Mackie protocol to EuCon, be aware you should ditch your surfaces from the setup window.
I was hoping this would fix the "return to track one in the arrange and on the Mix when re-ordering/hiding tracks" problem I cited, but it did not. However, I feel better about some of these issues being addressed thanks to an email a Euphonix rep sent me based on my "seller's remorse" post.

I'm glad the plugin issue is solved for you. I hadn't seen it myself but I wasn't sure how to go about approaching the issue (mainly because I didn't want to inadvertently change any settings and have the same issue crop up!) But having never had/used/owned any Mackie controls I guess I was both saved from this as well as knowing what I might be missing. (And after my horrid experience with several 1604-VLZ Pros, I vowed to never buy a Mackie product again - a promise Euphonix has allowed me to keep!)
I fully agree that the "back to home" behavior when moving things around is a little annoying. Right now I just make sure to re-click on the track I was moving around with the mouse and the MC Mix re-focuses back to the correct/desired track.
And although I continue to flog this horse, I too am very impressed with Euphonix's response and continued/constant updating. It's these early days that will make or break a product and I've been using mine all day (7 consecutive hours) with only 3 "freezes/disconnects." So all in all as long as things keep improving (and really they are pretty damn good for an initial release of such a complex product) I'd say I haven't been disappointed.
