UC-33 or UC-33e

Post by Patch » Wed Oct 27, 2004 2:51 pm

Is there any huge difference in these controllers? I plan to use midi learn to set up a template Live set. I realise you don't get the live overlays with the UC-33 (shame) but does the UC-33e offer more functionality? I ask because I'm looking to buy one off ebay - and the UC-33 non-e is cheaper at this time.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

uc-33e can be programmed (sysex) via midi and evolution's 'enigma' editor. uc-33 cannot.

The original UC-33 does NOT have a "bypass" mode. So if you want to move the knobs somewhere to match where the screen settings are, you can not "shut off" the data transmission momentarily to make the switch and then activate it again.

The UC-33E has added this function.
