Feature: Great. Very easyo to work with and personalize/tweak.
Quality: Alesis has yet to let me down with any studio equipment thus far.
Value: Cheap, sturdy, reliable, and effective.
Desirability: It balances perfectly the utiliterian and flash factors. Alot of cool lights and knobs, but they actually do things.
Sound: Great for what I use it on. I only use the noise gate feature through my Boss ns-2 and a 5150 (I and II). It kills ALL of the unwanted noise and dead air while the Boss gets rid of feedback.
Overall: havent dealt with too many others to call this the best yet.
