> Yeah, but the question remains, what equipment did you not 
like? 
-------
compressors, reverbs, 2 drum modules (and some ive forgotten 
about, im an old guy!). all of em simply stopped working sooner 
or later. i maintain my gear well, and i do expect a degree of 
malfunction. the thing which tipped the balance for me was 
spending a small fortune on the DM Pro drum module and then 
having it pop twice on paying sessions. ive since sampled all the 
sounds i want from it, and unsuccessfully tried to sell it.
id like to be more supportive of alesis, i do appreciate the design 
and intention, but given my track record with them i cant. 
in contrast, i owned an akai s1000 for over ten years, hammered 
it almost every day, and not once did it fall over.

sigh.... i dont like to berate equipment manufacturers but this is 
my experience.
------
anyway, on a more positive note....you've checked out the motu 
828 and are impressed? when you say its around 20% better 
than the vx pocket, what do you mean by that?
