If you've got an interface with an ADAT connection you should keep hold of it.

+1

If you must, sell the SPDIF and keep the ADAT, you might just regret it once you get into the machine.

guys if you would´nt mind i would like to ask here in this topic some beginers quick question:

On the 2kXL - in the sample window where you adjust atack, pan, cutoof - there where three possibilites how the sample work after hiting the pad. As i remmber there were poly, mono .. after the sample was playing as i hold the pad or been playing to the end after hiting or i could stop it with another hit and it start again.. On the 4k i just found a playmode: loop,no loop,oneshot - but in the case of one shot it doesnt stop the first hit on the pad? I hope it is just hiden somwhere.. becasue this could be litle bit disapointing for me not to have this function. like i have a vocal smaple sayin lets rock! and i want to do let..lets..lelelele.. lets rock - in this case it just need to be pressed and relesead which is not so natural / 2xl / or it just go let.lets..and it is trigeret all the way to the sample end many time at once.. i need after just onehit the pad to play the sample to the end but when i hit it / not holding it / again it starts again from start to end...

A blue one that is nice :)

Keep the ADAT board if you can. It can come handy in the futher.
If you really need to sell it send me a PM.
