Ithai, the major difference in the modular context is that the MAQ has no analog clock input, meaning you must use either it or MIDI as your clock source. I think it may also only offer quantized note values, which is great for some applications but less ideal for others. The trade off for this and a somewhat obscure interface is a host of cool features, not the least of which is its patch memory. The Oberkorn is a bit more of a "classic" analog sequencer design, simpler and more stripped down, but possibly better for some applications. Two very different products, really.
