Alright, I'm thinking of getting the Edirol PC-70 midi controller ... however, what's the difference between that and the, say, PCR-80? I can see that the PCR-80 has many more sliders, buttons, etc. However, these simply control onscreen parameters, correct? Also, I'm guessing these are controlled by the USB, hence the PC-70 has no sliders, buttons, etc. I want something inexpensive and that has quite a few octaves ... but it doesn't matter to me that I have to control parameters via the mouse, so will the PC-70 be a good solution for me?

a generic set of knobs and sliders is a great thing to have for doing any daw work. i'd go with the pcr if i were you- you'll appreciate it eventually. yes, the knobs and sliders (just like the keys) only send midi info- that's correct. but once you've set the sliders up to control levels on your mixer you'll like being able to adjust levels as you would with a hardware mixer (ie sliders). the knobs will grow on you too- promise.
