I got one for Christmas and was very disappointed in comparison to the Kaoss pad. The effects sound nice enough, except they can only be used as a dry+wet and not wet only, which is a bummer. Also, it lacks any memory-based effects (delay, reverb) and doesn't have a sampler like the Kaoss pad. My biggest beef is the actual implementation of the 3-d control. It's very picky, and you can go from 0 to 100% of an effect within an inch or two, it's very difficult to control with any accuracy. Neat idea, but not really too useful imo.....go for the Kaoss pad instead. At 05:58 PM 1/8/2001 -0800, you wrote:
