I finally got it after a huge mistake I make 2 weeks a go, and this is it...
Great feeling highly customizable, Super prize, looks awesome, well built, easy to set up, fast learning curb, X/Y Pad and it does have Deferent ranges of velocity or free velocity, all my plug ins in one control. Awesome editor and a Great addition to my set up. -
In my opinion the best pad controller in the market. The illuminated pads make it easy to see, and the X/Y pad is a big plus. Oh and btw, the pads ARE VELOCITY SENSITIVE, unlike what the review said.
I recommend it for anyone in need of a fun and easy way to make drum beats, or trigger loops/samples... -
Great when combined with Korg Radias (I use X/Y pad for effect control, others for preset triggering). Illuminated pads are a big plus.
Best software bundle I've heard of (ver. 3), considering the price of the package (€130 in Croatia).
