Control surface/audio interface combo

My Delta 1010 finally shitted out on me after about 6 or 7 years. Has anyone had any experience using a combination control surface/audio interface? For example Roland SI24, Yamaha 01X, Alesis Mastercontrol, etc. They all have automated faders/assignable knobs and built in audio and midi interface. Are motorized faders prone to breakage?

I'm using an analog Mackie 1402 Vlz pro with cubase SE right now. Do yall recommend switching up to the combo or sticking with separate components?

Thanks in advance for advice.

Thanks I'll do some more research and let ya know what I think when I buy the fucker!

I'm gonna peep it out first. Haven't had time to do much research yet but anyways runnin XP so compatibility shouldn't be much of an issue. Keep ya posted. Anyone used these with FL?? I use that for most of my sequencing then bump it to cubase for mixing.

I've had my eye on the yamaha 01x for a couple years but need to peep the competition

Think I'm gonna go with the alesis master control. It's 900 bucks and right now comes with a rebate for a free pair of M1 active 520 powered monitors. I don't really need the monit;ors now but I'm thinking about getting into 5.1 mixing eventually so they'll be good to have around.

It's weird most of the combo units didn't survive long on the market - the yamaha and tascams are discontinued. The alesis seems to have good support for a wide range of daws so it should be coo. Hope the firewire doesn't end up having latency problems compared to the 1010.
