Anybody uding one of these for all your audio I/O as well as midi.

What are your likes/ dislikes?

My Mackie firewire card is non-functioning at the moment & I'm afraid it may be awhile before Mackie Tech can help me out.

Look at the thread below. KB37 does not have any MIDI outside the USB connection. It cannot be set to any Channel other than Ch. 1. Apart from that, it is really good. The key action is OK, but not spectacular, and the I/O seems good so far, but quite a few people seem to be having trouble with the Mic 2 input and I am yet to test that on mine. The GearBox effects are awesome and work in close to realtime, outside your soundcard [and therefore independent of it's latency]. The preamp models are nice, if a little unsubtle at times, and the rest of the effects are mostly very usable. You can set-up two different mono effect chains or a single stereo chain so there is a ton of flexibility. The software also allows you to route different inputs or outputs to the meters on the KB37, which is handy for doing different things. e.g. monitor inputs for recording or outputs for live use.
I particularly like the preset up/down buttons and the transport controls on the front panel. The four controller knobs seem solid and you can assign several [4, I think] parameters to the Mod Wheel, which is a little smaller than most but perfectly usable none-the-less.
