-The rubber over the pads collects scum and pet hair. And the pads leave a 
lot to be desired in terms of dynamics and percussivity. The best ones 
I've ever witnessed were those on the ASR-X.

>>>Yeah they do collect hair don't they?  I use a smal car detailing brush 
for everything inmy studio, it works great for dusting mixers and synths, 
as well as the pads on the XX-7.  You can find them at most autoparts 
stores for only $2 or so.  Yes, I think the pads do get better after you 
use them for a bit (or I just got use to them).  I didn't like them either 
at first, but now I prefer them over keys.  Too bad no one makes a 61 pad 
XL-7 :) <<<

-And: How about the ability to simply mute the 32 channels in each track - 
set up like the track mix screen? This would give the XX-7 a nice 
mc-505-feature. What do you think?

>>>What do you mean by 505-feature?  I'm pretty familair with them, but 
don't recall what feature you'er talking about? <<<
