I’ve been using the MX 850 for a couple years now (thanks to Ray). It will literally do whatever you need. It all depends on how patient you are and just how creative you want to be with macros.

If you do decide to go with one of the RF / MX remotes make sure you upgrade to one of the base stations that allow for adjustable IR flasher output. I’ve had to get pretty creative with tape and my pen knife to “mellow” out the IR signal. Some of my components are pretty sensitive and the flashers can overwhelm them. One method to compensate (if you don’t have the adjustable base station) is to put a piece of tape with a very small (just right) hole in the tape. Then stick the flasher to the tape. If you can imagine, this can be a down right pain in the but.

I keep telling myself I need to order a new base station, but nothing seams to stay on my EQ rack for very long, so I just deal with the problems as they come up.
