Especially the pitch screen, which would require live experimentation to learn the controls. While the overall layout is a "bigger" problem, these problems are ones that a user will have a harder time coping with (I think) in the shorter term sense, because they aren't something that can be resolved by simple observation - they require actual experimentation, and in some cases may even trick a user into thinking something is impossible. With the menus, you can just iterate through all the lists until you see the option you want isn't there. With the pitch screen you may not even realize the screen can be toggled to different modes at all without the manual.
