On balance the mosaic would seem the better option as it will blend colours As well as do multi filament selection, rather than just select single filament types like the mmu2. Also only a couple hundred bucks more. Or about 6 inches of linear rail :-)
I respect you, your thoughts, and your input CA. And as such I have done some further research on the palette 2 and I still feel the same. But for a new reason I want to share with you. For it to take in 4 filaments and feed one out to the hotend and be able to handle mixing can only mean that this machine has it's own hotend built in and it is melting and squeezing out new 1.75mm diameter filament on the fly. While this is a cool feature on the surface my 24v printer is already up to a 600watt power supply. We must consider power consumption when we are dealing with machines that can run for literally days at a time. Of course this is all my thoughts and ideas on the subject this side of a working model or prototype.
