Reply to Behringer CMD MM-1

Hey all,

I am currently ordering all the fun bits and controllers and such of my new set-up and the center piece is a Behringer CMD MM-1. I was going to wait till it came out, but that apparently isn't happing till the end of summer. SO what my question is is what would be a good replacement? Basically I need a 4 band EQ (hi/mid/lo/filter), a level slider, a crossfader and about 3-4 buttons per channel, all on midi/usb. My current plan of action is an 'Allen and Heath K2' paired with a 'Novation Nocturn'. It is nice because I get the extra 16 buttons and 8 knobs, but I wanted to see what you all had to say too.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Prof.
