I figure while the stations change the other half of the machine will be ready and waiting.
Plus I'm keeping my M400.
We all know they're ways around the minor problems, all instrument have a snag or 2.

The M4000/5000 probably is slower than the Mark II when cycling. But then again you run less risk of fowling the tapes. Except for random static causing a tape to hang now and again during playing, I have never had a single problem with the M4000. Cycling continues to work flawlessly.

Sounds no more limting than the 8 second play time.
A possible advantage to the M5000 when it arrives.
