the 8x8 for example, you can't disconnect it from your computer, take it to a gig and
use it as a simple 8x8 midi through-box even though it has a little "USB/through"
button on it that works perfectly when hooked up to a PC. On the 2x2 this really isn't
a problem since you only have two devices, but I thought I'd bring it up anyways since
it's the one thing people don't like about midiman.

This is an excellent point and why I've been planning to add an Emagic MT4 instead
of buying another midiman. That said, I picked up a tmidiman 1x1 to have something
on hand which could easily b moved between my Win machines. Came with a copy of
Cakewalk somethigorother too - which is handy if you have no sequencer to begin
with I suppose.

Have you checked with the CS6x list here at Yashoo! Groups? Is that list still active?
