I recently bought an edirol pcr-m30 and i 'm pretty satisfied with it.No problems, everything works just the way i expected to work from the specifications.
But i can't really compare it to alesis because i 've never tried one of them. But as i can see from photos alesis have less knobs if that matters to you.
Have a nice synth...

I had the Xboard 25 its quite good, but if you can afford to pay around $400 i would recommend the Novation Remote SL 25 as it has much more features, for example the auto-map function which means you don't have to assign those cc numbers manually..

i've got the PCR-M30...

it's fine - great to play, the x-y controller is excellent, pots and faders are servicable. of late it's refusing to play some low notes, but that's because it's been gigged heavily. otherwise nothing nasty to report

I don't know much about midi controllers but they look very similar. If I were you I'd search the forums for some reviews or something.

Look for the Photon X25 too...           serz/xynapse
