7095 vs 7096 multicontroller

[MisterP]

Ok so whats the basic difference in these 2 controllers considering one is $100 more than the other? They seem basically the same in reading the description on a vendors website.

Basically the 7096 does more but it is dependent on a USB connection to a computer for programming. The 7095 is stand alone and is set by turning knobs and pushing buttons on the controller. On the 7096, your computer is doing most of the work, so it is cheaper.
