It just freakin' works. And/or, it can work the way you want to. We just got this and literally plugged it in moments before a rehearsal, and it just worked already. No drivers, no updating the firmware, no registering stuff, no bugs, no hoops to jump through, no unexpected hiccups, no tricky settings to figure out how to navigate, no learning curve whatsoever, it just instantly worked exactly as you would expect. AND it was insanely simple and quick to re-program a couple of the knobs for our own purposes to use in a different way than the default functionality. I really wish all music products were this bomb-proof, simple, and flexible and just plain EASY to work with. Then we could all be PLAYING music instead of having to worry about trying to get stuff to work. 150 stars out of 5.
