thats a midi controller, a syntheziser and soundcard in-one.

I have a novation nova similar AMS technoligy.. they sound good for a VA, but I personallly dont like the VA sound, the filters always remind me of plastik..

now on the otherhand as a controller, could one set the cc of ADSR LFO Filters ect on the mpc to respond to the controllers of the novation? so I'd just have to flip tracks/parts's and grab say the Decay knob on the novation and I'd be editing the decay on the MPC part, I know this is how controllers work I just haven't used one with the MPC and I can't testify as how well it would work or if the prossess is a hassel or not but it would be wicked, like adding a contole surface to the mpc,.. anyone in practice?

Keyboard magazine just did a review of the x-station 25 (smaller than the 61 but essentially the same thing) in the September issue.
