Sorry, it's not a reply to your post, but how do you find mpd 24 working with resolume?

And with this setup you can trigger only between 8 clips? and other decks and clips with mouse/touchpad?

it realy depends on your vjing style,,, i have my 6 - 10 videos of one specific subject,,, let say water/nature
then i have another group urban/city , and so...
i drag the clips that i will be using during 3 tracks more or less, and i play a lot with those videos, and with fxs.
i set up my videos, and usualy rather than swiching videos i have 2 o 3 videos on the same file and i play a lot with the in/out loops, that why i have it assing.
i saw vjs using akai24, akai 40, nanocontrollers, iphone touch osc and wiimotes... there is no rigth o wrong way to do it. Still im verry use to the akai24 , and with akai24+vvvv+midiloopback i have even more things on the akai ( i can use it as a triguerfinguer, i connect a pad to a damper, so acording to the streng of the hit, this will move a virtual midi crossfader assigned in resolume to a layer ). And because i cant use the same controller under res3 and vvvv at the same time, i hook up the akai via usb and a midi-usb cable at the same time )
i remember one day my usb connector of the akai broke, and i didt have time to fix it ( i wasnt on my city, it was a saturday night and i have to be on the club in 1 hour ), so i went to the club tring to mix with my itouch + touch osc ( not so practical but better than mouse/keyboard ), and i saw one of this http://www.productwiki.com/upload/image ... c24122.jpg , under de djbooth, i ask the guy and they told me " we use that before for the dimmer pack, but today we dont need it ), so i borrow that console + my midi cable and i use that.
if you travel a lot, mdp24 will be a pain because its big and heavy, but is a verry good controller. i have it for 3 years and i broke the usb connector only once because it fall to the florr with the cablle connected and the cable hit the ground firts... way out of waranty

hey, thanks for such a feedback;]
i don't have so much excperience. and i don't travel so much with the equipment (max 500 km on a train). So i think the dimentions of mpd 24 is not such a pain. I use bfc 2000 now (http://www.synthtopia.com/synth_review/ ... CF2000.jpg), and it has very similar dimentions so i think it's goona be alrite.
