"This is a must have for a digital setup!"

Feature:
its got all the sliders,knobs,and stuff but the best thing about it is the presets........its already set up for cubase,battery,live,reason,ect....you can control all the top softwear programs with the turn of a knob.

Quality:
its strong...im heavy handed and all the pads still work(knock on wood)!

Value:
i got it for cheap ....but if I paid full price,I think I would still get it.

Desirability:
I got it,so the thrill is gone....but I still use it alot....its perfect for durm patterns and chopping samples.

Sound:
i got it with out the cd's so I never had the stock sounds,BUT! with my other samples its good.You can hit the pads hard or soft for how strong you want the sound to come out,or just hit the full level button and all sound will be hard no matter how to touch it.

Ease of Use:
its pretty basic just hit the pads(duhh)....but i still dont know how to set up the play,stop,rec,and stuff....but I control that with the softwear anyway.

Support:
dont know,never called.

Overall:
Since I have a digital setup I use it like a mpc....I think its the next best thing to a mpc.Not much I dont like about it,,,and with the presets I can use it for a long time.
