a) It makes you really *want* to map it to your MIDI controller. The more complex beasts like Zebra almost invariably stay on the mouse for me, but I have a beautiful Automap template set-up for One that just makes me use it.
b) There's a huge sweet spot on this thing. It's limited, sure, but almost everything sounds good, and it finds its role in the song much quicker.
I already kind of had One before I bought it. It comes with every issue of CM, but the version on the disc is old and doesn't have polyphony. So, in reality, I paid $6 just to have more notes from this puppy.
Furthermore, if you are interested in other Fabfilter products, this sets up your account with the upgrade prices.
So yeah, in my opinion, skip a Happy Meal and buy this.
Thank you guys for the feedback......I'll skip the 6 dollar burger at carls jr and go this route
