RC-505 MKII : Amazing piece of gear that would benefit from a better build quality

Works great – the sound quality is impeccable, and the fact that the unit can function as an audio interface while also applying live FX to vocals and synths allows me to cut out some of the extra devices I'd need in my chain otherwise. I've yet to get a full grasp on all of its looping and mixing capabilities, though, because there are just so many features, but thus far, I am astounded by how much I can do on the fly. It immediately puts you in the mood to improvise and experiment.

The build quality could be better, though. The body feels too light and plastic, almost like a toy. One accidental drop, and this expensive piece of gear is likely to end up in... well... pieces.
