I think to an extent this depends on your desire and willingness to 
tweak. MIDI (either a second brain or a pad-to-MIDI wangdoodle) 
would certainly require some time wandering the highways and byways 
of the menus and options on both wangdoodle and brain - and, judging 
by some of the previous messages here, that can lead to frustration. 
Me, I quite like that stuff and it generally takes several hours of 
frustrated tinkerage before I have an urgent need to solve the 
problem by applying a torque wrench and E=(1/2)mv^2. If your boiling 
point is lower, then the mixer route is probably favourite as it 
should just be plug'n'go. You can plumb the 'phones out of one brain 
through the AUX IN of the other for a low-cost approach, or get an 
inexpensive mixer for a bit more flexibility.

Me, I probably fall between the two and whichever way I choose I 
will wish I did it the other way. [sigh] C'est la vie.
