The MTX is meant to compete with Avid Icon and Euphonix System 5 type products. The MTi is MUCH more affordable, with similar feature set but a smaller screen. This is designed as a control surface for many DAW's, but it does not have I/O except for a monitoring section. Perhaps it could be adopted for use with a live application in mind.
