Sounds like you just need a bit more time with the PC learning proper "buffer" technique. Once you can perfect your use of that, the rotary will become much eaiser. I just ordered my CE rotary and I'll be anxious to see what I can do with it; from what I've gathered here though I doubt it will be much of a problem.
