I was hoping to find all three in one... blah. No luck.
I went with the Evolution MK-255 controller (MIDI out only). I'm very happy
with it. It's well built, and it required no special configuration at all.
I'm only using a Celeron 1200 with 384 MB ram. I can play a loop in sweep,
and jam overtop with fluidsynth without latency. Jack apps, however, are
horrible. Crazy xruns... not useable. Could be due to the latest jack
though... I haven't played with it much, other than installing lowlat kernel
and using tmpfs for jack temp dir. Pure ALSA apps run great though. (This is
all Mandrake cooker though... changes daily.)
I haven't settled on a MIDI/audio interface yet. I was leaning toward the
Quattro, but usage reports are mixed.
