I know this is not new and has been out for a while, but I've been waiting to see how it faired since it first came out, besides the fact that that everything might be too small for you what else do you think about it has it been stable, is it your main controller .

i'm pretty sure they're discontinued, fairly hard to find, too

i tried a USB one on windows and it was crap. seemed to work ok on mac, but this was pre OSX. basically the company want no part of anything to do with windows anymore so the drivers are well out of date and really don't work. by the way, your link goes to the sam ash page for the "Evolution UC33e" controller, is that what you intended?

when i click the link it goes to sam ash jl cooper cs32, they seem to have them in stock , i've got a macbook so does that mean if i use it on the mac side everything should be all good

i have heard that it isn't the best in a live setting. the faders are tiny and are just like the little nub part of a fader that is normally covered by a plastic cap.

strange, always goes to evolution uc33e here. anyway, i can't vouch for how well it'll work on mac, i just know i had a bastard of a time even getting it to install on pc, let alone work properly. it seemed to work fine on mac as the software was more mature, but i'd attempt to try one out first, or at least make sure you had a solid return/approval option on it. have they updated the software for OSX and UB?
you're really paying for the size i guess which is kinda win/lose - it is tiny and portable (which attracted me) but so are the faders etc. don't expect really fine control out of the tiny little faders.
also, i'd maybe take a hint from the relative unpopularity of em. more than likely theres a reason hardly anyone uses them...
