Hi Kim;

It wasn't my intent to talk down to anyone on the list. I too have been on 
mailing lists for many years and recognize the rules of netiquette. I went 
through the archives far enough to know who I was talking to before I 
posted.

The tossing out of the 4x4 line is a reaction to what *I* read as an 
extreme in pigeon-holing the box into a DJ role with the statement of:

   ...from what I can tell it seems like the interface and the unit's 
intent
   is more ideally suited to a DJ than a live instrumentalist.

To emphasize my impression of what he was saying here, I turned around 
with 
the 4x4 statement.
