Novation 25SL MkII - Frankfurt MusikMesse 2009

[VenVile]

The Novation X Station, with Automap, "touch feel" drumpads, more internal memory for additional user banks or, an SD/USB memory slot and polytimbral will OWN any and every other controller! Please believe it! I dunno why Novation hasn't done this as yet, it seems so logical and in your face!

[tachalainen]

hey .. what about the MkII and Reason .. does those two work good together?

[Paladinoocara]

@tachalainen, I've never used it before, but with the Automap Pro it's fact that it will work nicely with Reason

[losangelesstrippers]

Yes go read gearslutz, I am not the only one disappointed with this.

[1StOfDecember]

so what do you think it lacks?

[1StOfDecember]

oh i get it. you' are m-audio employee or something

[losangelesstrippers]

M-Audio is even worse POS than you guys are. First of all the hype you guys created about it being product of 2009 is BS. What is so revolutionary about your product? That it has midi learn button? Or is the revolutionary of 2009 the new foot pedal? HAHA give us a break and you have the nerves to ask what its missing? Whats so damn new? Its been done for years, by many vendors. Its just another Automap crap that never worked. Take vendors SDK and give us real support on real DAW implementation

[1StOfDecember]

y r u referring me to them? im just a consumer and all u can do is moan.

get a life

[amtreble]

which one would you reccomend for someone who is getting their first midi controller?

[1StOfDecember]

Novation.

[amtreble]

thx

[losangelesstrippers]

Automap is a nightmare so be very careful. Quite a few controllers, depending on what you want to do. I just installed Engima nad had Cubase and Prostation 88 sync and working flawless. I have not tried this new line on novation so I would try this as well at a guitar center if they have them available. Feel the keys, make sure the keys are to your liking it makes big difference. Don't buy anything with out trying it first.

[VenVile]

The Novation X Station!

[losangelesstrippers]

This was suppose to be the hottest product for Musikmesse 2009. It happens that is the biggest hype crap possible. You guys are going backward. Too much hype not a lot of meat!

[1StOfDecember]

have you got grounds for your allegations?

[zodiacie]

I think its great, though some people are not so keen, any ideas why?

[1StOfDecember]

Awesome. I'm buying once it's out.

[amtreble]

if you had none, which midi controller would you reccomend? would you go with the mkII?
