Elektron Musical Instruments

Just out of curiosity does the MnM have the same encoders?  The knobs  
are definitely different, but I haven't heard of any encoders dying  
on the MnM yet.  Of course I just got my MnM so I've been mostly  
ignoring MnM related posts since it came out.

I know I prefer the feel of the MnM knobs over the MD's.  They have  
more grip to them.
