Alrighty, I sent the Xone:42 back to where it came from. After my ordeal with being basicly duped by Allen & Heaths false description of the mixers capibilities, I decided to just suck it up and get the Xone:92 which does indeed have MIDI capibilities. Why the Xone:42 doesnt is beyond stupid, especially for a mixer that cost $1300 to not support even at least the cross fader as MIDI controable input is just plain stupid if you ask me. What good is a USB mixer if it doesnt support MIDI? But I digress… Anyway, I talked to the people that I got the bunk-42 from and they hooked me up with the Xone:92 insted. You know whats funny, Allen & Heath had the audactiy to suggest that I buy a Xone:1D in addition to the 42 if I wanted MIDI. But you know what, its actuallyu cheaper to straight up buy the Xone:92 than it is to buy the 42 and the 1D individually. Stupid Allen & Heath dont even know the price of their own products. Let me just add that this will be the first and only Allen & Heath product that I ever buy, and if its not the fucking best thing since sliced bread, its going straigh back to the store it came from.
