=========================

with the 1600x (and i think the original 1600) you can set the range of
the sliders to just about anything... 1-65535, 3-4, 1-9, 0-99... whatever.
but... the ∗resolution∗ will always be limited to 7 bytes. oh-well.

but yeah... i can do things with the 1600x that would be impossible with
just about any other production controller.

for testing out the 800mk3 software, i suspect that most/all of the
controllers you mentioned would do the job.
