Logic Pro 9 New USB Mackie Controller Vs Older Midi

[Ru_C]

Hey all, i'm considering a control surface of some sort (need 16 faders) for tracking duties.

The older black mackie controllers often go for a reasonable price on ebay.

Apart from the USB ports, what are the *disadvantages* of the older controller + extenders?

cheers

My old style ones work just fine. The only reliability issue I've seen others complain of is the motors in the faders playing up.

If anyone has an old mcu xt they want to sell contact me. I'd love to have 24 faders plus my c4
