Xone k2 overview
The Xone k2 has a very good built quality as you expect from Allen & Heath. It is very portable and comes with its own case. The K2 has 3 latching layers which means 3 banks that you can use for your personalized mappings. You can easily configure it's midi channel and which buttons/ knobs can be affected by the latching layers. You can connect multiple k2's with each other via Xlink or connect a k2 with an other xone mixer that has xlink, which is a big plus if you have few usb's on your laptop.
The only think that I don't like is the built in sound card due to it's driver and also it doesn't have good latency. If you have a xone 23C, 43C, DB2, DB4,PX5 this should not effect you but if you use any other mixer then I recommend to purchase an external soundcard.
Overall all I am satisfied with this controller, I recommend this controller for those persons that like to create their personal mappings. Also it suites very well with traktor or abelton.

Love It!
Really great if you're comfortable MIDI mapping yourself. Still great with user submitted MIDI maps. I would give it 5 stars if it had a dedicated hardware volume control and a power switch, It is slightly larger than I thought it would be - quite long. The build quality is good, a bit light overall but the control surface is top notch. Sound quality is great, much better than some 24bit/96khz cards I've used

Solid Controller
The controller feels robust and it's great for traveling and very portable, comes with a nice case. The soundcard on the other hand it's low quality and with unbalanced outputs, but overall great for mapping and live performances.
