ESI Xjam

I use it in Cubase mainly as midi remote controller for shortcuts and DAW controls. It's very compact, well build and the response is great. The only drawback for this use is that pads doesn't light up for on/off functions, and you have to remember the assignments. The knobs are tight but turn smooth. It is great that it's powered from the usb and it works very stable.

As a drum pad is just great.

The editing software is very good, flexible and easy to use. The only complain is that you can't select all pads to edit them all at ones so you have to go one by one.
