with the exception of the BCF2000 (and its all-encoder cousin) if you 
are looking for a controller, to use alongside another keyboard - it has 
a set of encoders, a nice set of 2-byte motorised faders, plenty of 
buttons and LED's, and a fair bit of memory for presets and the like, 
and flexible midi/USB connections - it is something they actually got 
right, and it is quite good value.
