This controller is exactly what it's cracked up to be: affordable, versatile, and compact. The simple LCD feedback is surprisingly excellent, the keys, knobs, wheels all have a familiar, reliable feel. I simply plugged it into the usb, it got power, xp recognized it as a midi audio something or other, and I was immediately sending midi signals to Live.
Cons: One knob only registers ~100 degrees (not the full 270 or whatever). Not a big deal.
Also, the included VST instrument software isn't working with Live right now, and the error message + help documentation is weak.
Overall, I look forward to exploring what I can do with this. It's small size and power-via-usb is a huge plus for mobility!
Great Bang for the Buck!

Great piece of hardware for a beginner (like me). Programming is a bit difficult, and I have yet to figure out how to use the included Proteus software, but overall a great product. Solid build quality. No problems at all.
