I just got one all set up and now I'm hooked. I should have lots to post soon. I spent all day figuring this thing out and I got the majority of it down. There are still a couple features that I don't understand; mainly what a "program" is and how to switch my C bank off of that so that I can use the bank for my samples. Other than that I've been going crazy with this thing. Akai Professional definitely makes some excellent gear! I do wish that the pads were a little bit softer. My fingers are killing me xD!
