The nicest thing I can say about the Mimetics digitizer is that it is
a piece of junk. End of Review.

The FutureSound unit is considerably more expensive than PerfectSound
but offers a passthrough bus and has a long cable that allows you to
place it where you want.

The PerfectSound unit has no cable and requires that you crawl around 
behind your Amiga to make input level adjustments and hook up the
input source.

I use the FUtureSound and like it just fine. If you're on a budget or
don't care about an occasional inconvenience, PerfectSound is also a
very good choice.

Both of them work with a wide variety of digitizing software.
