I use a combination of my M-Audio Trigger Finger, Radium 49 and Alesis Photon X25. I mostly use the X25 and its xyz controler with Simpler and also use it on the Freq, Res and fader controls. Some may not like the Photon X25 but I am finding the xyz controller to be more useful each day. The Trigger Finger is great for contolling my impulse sounds and the Radium works great for my vst synths. I can take these 3 things anywhere and use them with my laptop and just plug the Photon X25 into anyones mixer and I am up and running. I heard of a lot of people having problems with their Photon ASIO drivers but mine worked fine once I moved it off of my USB hub and gave it its own usb port on my Laptop. Oh yeah I also use the Photon to control my transport setting and to start and stop sessions. Sometimes I only use the X25 and it is enough for what I am doing.

I will buy a BCR soon, MANY people here seem to be very happy with it, and
there are many knobs. With the endless Encoders, you can make REAL use of
different Presets, without jumps in Parameters.
The Remote series looks like fun, and Automap is a good idea, but:
1. I doubt that it covers all my personal (i want it Me-mapped) requests
2. Is it just me, or is this thing SO expensive ??? I mean, have you touched it?
it's as plastic as something can be, the keys seem ok, but the Faders, encoder
and Drumpads ???
