this controller worked instantly and perfectly with my software (reaper, harrision mixbus, tracktion). it does everything as advertised and the fader noise isn't noticeable to me when i'm using to mix. my only real compliant is that it is a bit bigger then i'd like. it's sorta boxy and feels a little oversized. mostly it's too tall and a bit bulky / chunky. on the plus side it feels very sturdy. when i received it noticed it was used. it appears i was sent accidentally sent a refurbished unit instead of a new one. i contact zZounds and they were super helpful. they offered a full refund / return or exchange at no cost to me. they also offered me a generous partial refund. i went with the partial refund and kept the unit, because it works perfectly and does exactly what i thought it would do. also, i tried to register it with behringer so i could claim my free tracktion 7 daw software download code. i contacted behringer several times and they never responded to give me my warranty registration infor or my download code. not a big deal but i was hoping to get the tracktion software as advertised.

We purchased the Compact controller because we needed the 9 faders to use with our XR-12 and also DAW control in a home studio. Does the job well and the price was right. The most important negative is lack of ethernet port,you have to use USB or MIDI cable to connect. It would have been really awesome to be able to use it live in stand alone mode with the XR-12 via CAT5 . Can't have everything at this price,you have to pay for the full X-Touch controller to have all the options. The fader knobs come off easily but go back on just as easily.
