------------------------
if the md would be a "tank" the potis shouldnt break away that 
easily. i like the fast dial, but i would prefer a more solid 
construction design. if you leave the md in your studio all the time, 
you will never have problems with that. on tour, and with the hazards 
you might encounter there, the knobs are breaking away too easily. 
this happened 5 times already to me, and i really always keep the md 
in my cabin baggage during flights. 


on that issue about the "tank" internal wiring read here:

one more thing i would like to have on the power supply is the 
possibility to use it in countries with different voltages (110-230 
volt)...the MPC does this, my Novation Nova does this, and for the 
Gear which uses "standard" adapters i can get local ones cheap and 
easily.

greetz...
