C'mon, guys! Look around at the groovebox community, and the tools they tend to use, nowadays. If this is a groovebox, where are the pads? A different color and some different graphics slathered over the same old we've seen in a different coat before does NOT turn this magically into a groovebox. Look at the controllers made for Ableton Live, look at the Electribe's and their successors. They aren't 76 note keyboards.
Maybe I only SEEM relentless about Lionstracs because I'm the only one actually NOTICING this stuff?
BTW, anyone actually got an answer to my question about the LED brightness, or would you rather ignore all this and just make comments about the tone again?
This is starting to turn from an arranger forum into a 'suck up to Lionstracs or get flamed' forum...
the LEDS have light and soft colors. they will get soft color by silicone keys.
if you do not believe ask James and Dennis too.
and stay calm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!if you ever can do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, I'm not saying what you should or shouldn't use. I am just pointing out what REAL groovebox users actually DO.
Tell you one thing. Try drumming out a groove on ONE of those buttons. Tough, ain't it?! That's why there ARE pads on many grooveboxes and WS's. If their users WANTED to use tiny buttons, keys or add-on extras, that's the way they would make them.
