no doubt it looks nice but its nothing special its just a midi controller with keys+mpc style drumpads.

but if it gets hectic on those drumpads the keys might DISTURB the performance moral of the story...

GET SEPERATE DRUMPADS AND KEYS ha!

of course i dont doubt that it will sell like hot chicken.

I think you can choose a mode....pads or keys

i dont see the pads and keys combined bad either....especially for a laptop/traveler/space deprived person either

if this was an mpc....id def buy it without a doubt

Novation remote sl is the bomb, that one automaps everything, no setting it up, plug it in and it automatically locks into your host:

Either that or the M-Audio ProKeys 88, that's got a full size piano keyboard with 14 instrument sounds + midi controller:

Not sure which one I'll be getting, if anyone owns either one, get at me.

Already got the MPC1000 with swing and note repeat, so that makes this one kind of redundant for me. The 12 pad set up is honestly not so bad after all, played around with the MPC500 at Guitar Center, not so bad...

....with note repeat and arpeggio! bye korg, m audio... I have to say though, its a shame they didnt release a model with a bigger key range, 49 just doesnt cut when you can play with more than 2 fingers.
