I have the Artist panel, and like Greg, I mostly use the balls and rings in Resolve and keyboard shortcuts along with my Wacom tablet. In addition to Resolve, I've used the Artist panel with Apple Color, Symphony, and the Baselight plug-in.
I chose the Artist basically because I like the rings surrounding the trackballs and in the wave they are separated. That and the Artist panel fits my desk a little better.

Just upgraded my avid 'artist' panel for Elements. In spite of good implementation, the panel is close to useless in media composer / symphony - an issue with the application, not the panel.
(We're moving it to a second Resolve-enabled avid room.)
In resolve I only used the balls and rings- the shortcut keys are not generally faster than using your keyboard.
If cash is an issue, second hand tangent wave may be a good choice. I had one when I first started with resolve, and it wasn't bad. Pretty fast and big buttons. I don't like the little buttons on the avid panel.
The element is nice- really enjoying it. However, BM remapped the keys a little for resolve 10- and, while it seems more 'organized,' there a lot more two and three, even four- key-poke sequences to get to common uses than there was in resolve 9. Irritating. I wish they would just make it mappable... Or at least offer multiple configs.
Hope that's some help.
Hi All,I asked this over on the DS-L and got some great feedback, so I thought I would expand to here and catch all thoughts - I'm looking at these two panels, feeling that the Avid (Euphonix) gives me a larger range of software to use it with, but I thought I would check here to see opinions of both. (Element may be overkill)I will probably use it primarily in Resolve. If I go with the Avid panel, then there is also DS and Symphony. But really leaning towards getting up to speed in Resolve.Comments, experiences, personal prefs are all encouraged!Thanks!Tom--Tom Phillips734.717.4256 - cell
