I'm getting started making some tracks and am looking for a controller. The MicroKontrol looks sweet and seems to have decent reviews - was wondering if anyone on here had experience w/it? Is there a loop or hold function for those 16 pads similiar to what is possible on a MPC?
At the moment, I am only using Garageband, but will be getting Reason 2.5 and an MBox w/ProTools LE shortly. I don't really want to get some rinky-dink controller like the Oxygen which seems like I'd outgrow it rather quickly. thanks in advance - other suggestions for sub-$400 controllers would be welcome! -Peter |

I have an oxygen 8 that I've used for some time and it "was" great, compact, good key feel and size, and cheap, just a very straight forward controller, but for some reason (being so portable, it has "touched" the ground a few times) it doesn't work anymore, (something is loose inside), since then I've moved up to an edirol pcr50, not portable,which for me right now is ok (no chance of brakin it) but very good indeed more control, programmable, good keyboard. I'm planning to fix my oxygen though, because of the portability.
