I use the MS with the band..only playing over our tracks, MP3/wave/sequence..We don't use arranger play...

There is a on bass with the 3rd party style player...

The MS has great dual mics with processing..(optional board that I have)..You can use 3rd party 8 part harmonizer software (I do not use it with the band)..

No center cancel..I have yet to find one that works even remotely ok...hit and miss at best, with about a 10 percent success percentage..Prelude has it..so does the G70..

The concept can be obtained on the MS..

What makes it nice to use the MS...No outboard gear needed at all..just powered speakers..and everything is easily adjustable from the panel..
