Excuse my ignorance, but what makes this so much better than grabbing a 2box in which I can load a VST? Listening to 2box with loaded VST compared to this and I cannot really tell that much of a difference. To the casual user like me I would think the 2box might require more work to get the VST loaded, but it is half the price.
2box you are limited with the sound you imports, you cannot do anything later, which could be a pain, they don't have multi-channel samples, don't have DPS, separate EQ\compression for each separate instruments, you can't set your mic level or snare bottom\head or for each instruments etc, remember this module is ready to play, with editing, separate head phone mix, click track, and you get supports from the company with new expansion pack and possible affiliation, 128GB storage, the module will have various pad manufacture profiles already made.
2box is great, but you need to works alot and you can't edit later, until you redone again all these procedure and triggering system is not the same, average people don't know how to do it, buying various vst, importing, exporting etc.
