Which encoder do you use? and the main reason why
Darkstalker:
Hagstrom KE-72. 72 seperate inputs, no ghosting concerns. I still haven't ruled out swappable CPs, so I wanted the extra inputs.

Same.
I'm not going with as many controls as I first believed, but I like knowing the extra inputs are ther if I need them.
MinerAl:
Went with the IPAC2 because it was the only USB alternative, and I wanted T-Sticks anyway. Works with my Macs and PC.
I have since bought an Opti-PAC, some T-Stick Plusses, and an IPAC VE. Andy's service is second to none (except maybe OSCAR's).
To be honest, my need for USB has kept me from trying anything else, so I can't say there's anything good or bad about the others. They simply don't offer the product I need.

I would echo alot of what MinerAl just said.
My current cab is Mac-based, so I opted for the Ipac-4.
I was originally planning a frankenpanel, but opted for swappable, then moved to modular, to keep a more classic look to my cab.
The Ipac-4 has alot more inputs than I currently need, but they are there if I need them in the future for another project.
My ONLY complaint about the KeyWiz is that it doesn't support USB.
RandyT was tossing around the idea of a "mini" USB KeyWiz awhile back.
He was planning to have 15 inputs + Shift functions, IIRC.
I don't know where he is with that idea, but it would be a great alternative for a 1-P/7-button, or 2-P/3-button cab.

Got it a few years ago. What will I use next time? ipac.
