EC4 : The CONS are sooo minor

Love it. Absolutely.

I will only mention what I consider the non-obvious:

PROS:

- It comes preloaded with the "apparent" CC messages based on the Setup (Bank), Groups and Encoders. So, in the case of CC-ing, configuring the names is just a matter of vanity and ergonomics.

- It is much lighter than you'd think (maybe a con?)

- Changes are applied immediately. No need to press "save" all the time and no fear of losing a long work session.

- It can be configured via a web-based editor... I could not care less for the web-based editor. Doing it on the device has become a pleasure.

- The navigation/configuration is initially a bit complex but then you realise that it's natural for a device that does so much.

- The encoders feel a little hard (maybe a con? I like it)

CONS

- Its much lighter than you think. The enclosure plastic feels a little... cheap... plastic-y.

- The top LEDs have a cheap-ish feel to them.

- The top buttons also have a cheap-ish feel to them and they wiggle.

- TRS MIDI type B.

- That ugly squared USB connection.

- The manual. Absolutely awful. I just learned without it.

- There are some software features things I would love to see but I don't think they belong here (the most popular review on u-tube talks about these and more)
