Your Opinions of the UX16

aether · 08-13-2006, 11:54 PM

I'm interested in buying a UX16 so I can hook up my DTX to Drummania, but before I do that, I'd like to get your input on the device. I've heard a lot of negative feedback on it, and I would like to use it for more than Drummania in the future.

Have any of you used it in conjunction with any other hardware for music production?

I'd love to hear your experiences.

Thanks a lot!

Given the number of negative reviews by users to positive ones, nearly all of which cite a lack of reliability for it to work, I'd advise NOT getting the UX16.

Then again, I am not aware of alternatives. It would be more expensive, but perhaps just getting a USB interface with MIDI ports would be better. Heck, I think there's even some high-edge sound cards that have the interface built into them. You KNOW that's going to work, but at the same time, it'll ring you around $200.

From what I'm reading in the reviews, this looks rather shitty.
