Maybe two Xone 1d's....?

I'd start checking ebay/craigslist, I'm sure someone's selling one somewhere...

edit: didn't they discontinue it a while ago??

hmmm! i can afford 2xXone1D
thanks, i forget about them completely !

they discontinue it 2 or 3 months ago i think...

I picked one up actually a few months ago off craigslist in Winnipeg. Funny thing is I live in Toronto but they're so rare around here. Messaged the guy and told him I'd cover shipping. Cost me $150 total. Great deal. Good Luck!

If you want it cheap a combination of BCR and BCF should do it

I would also love to see a follow up device.

Maybe M-Audio have something in the pipeline.
"X-Session XL" would be nice

i had a bcr... no way to buy again anything from that company

I'm actually looking to replace the knobs on mine, if anybody has some suggestions of where to get them from. They seem a bit tough to track down. I know they need the "D" shaft, but I'm not sure what diameter is best. Anyone tried this? Advice appreciated.

really ???
BCR2K(Behringer ControlleR 2000)is amazing.. I've had mine for 8 years and it's still running...
it is the B-word company...
but I can honestly say it's one of the best controllers evar..
BCF motor-faders make too much noise imo

I'd contact A&H support..
they'll at least let you know the standard..
(and maybe point you in some direction)

edit: sorry! that first image came up HUGE, didnt mean to!

Love that controller, basic but works. I'm sure they will keep popping up on ebay though. I'd sell you mine but I did a custom paint job on it! haha...



There is one I almost bought from WaveIdea called the bitstream 3x: http://www.waveidea.com/en/products/bitstream_3x/ got a crossfader too I think. build quality felt about the same as the UC33e
