Cheap Alternative to Kontrol X1? Posted on: 10.05.2013 by Avis Lekic Any cheap alternative to a kontrol x1? I was looking at the Evolution UC 33e? Not really bothered about build quality as it will be for studio use only.

Leota Dolney 12.05.2013	Originally Posted by MRG12EG allen and heath - k2 built in audio interface as well I like the Xone:K2 and all, but the OP was asking for a cheap alternative to the X1 and the K2, last I checked, costs more than the X1. If you need a sound interface as well, then the K2 is a nice option and has lots of controls, but if you are looking for cheap, then consider something else.

Kellie Myrum 11.05.2013	BCD3000 feels cheap, sounds cheap but has the smartest control layout I've ever seen for a device that little!
Emelina Chillson 11.05.2013	The local shop I buy from here says theyll have the cmd's on the 27th
Nedra Fresneda 11.05.2013	I wouldn't call a BCD solid in the construction department. It's knob are decentish but faders and buttons are rubbish, It's soundcard is subpar on anything bigger than a small bar and I found it quite temperamental in the almost 2 years I gigged with one. It was a nice unit in it's day but there are way better options nowadays. I'd go for a used X1 or LPD8 (with taller knob caps).
Tania Somppi 11.05.2013	Just to put a new slant on this thread I'm gonna say ......... a used BCD3000 Solid build with more buttons and knobs than an X1 to map and a soundcard built in too. Just about any of the early controllers from that generation with EQ knobs and buttons can be mapped to do what the X1 does with buttons and knobs to spare tho tbqh. I still use a BCD2000 in my setup, mapped much like an X1 to control FX, timecode modes, gains, browsing, loading, key, stop/play ... etc and a few silly extra FX shenanigans with the faders, cos I had no other use for them
Nana Mohs 12.05.2013	I'll jump on the used x1 train. Around $120 is the cheapest on guitar center now http://used.guitarcenter.com

Kellie Myrum 10.05.2013	Indeed. It also has interesting firmware similar to MIDIfighters that sends extra note if you hold all four pads in any row or colon. Instant Gratification mapping for the MF should be compact.
Alphonso Deitchman 10.05.2013	The DC-1 is also very similar.
Kellie Myrum 10.05.2013	More precisely it's called CMD DV-1. Check it out.
