P.S. : It would be great if Tc release a MD4 for Powercore but i think it's impossibe due to the big DSP power that a MD4 need...

There truly is a big difference between MD3 and MD4, both in sound quality and features and flexibility. I really didn't use the 6000 nearly as much as I do now before MD4 came out. I think MD4 could eventually be released as software as DSP power is getting faster and cheaper all the time. It's no more power hungry than the MDW (Massenburg) EQ. I think they'll wait a while primarily from a marketing perspective, but perhaps powercore is a little DSP shy, in which case they might come out with an updated version at some point with some more software. But we'll probably get MD5 (not the checksum) for the mainframe if MD4 goes native!
