while these choices are on the page, it's not "clear" what's what...and what's included for the price...

On chat with MF right now....

 

EDIT:

No interface is included.   I think I'm going to get a bundle - don't care about the controller, but I can get S14 Professional AND a year of Groove 3 for $120!  Not bad.

The text says: If you wish to control virtual instruments and you need an interface, consider this package:

Which then lists several options. So no interface is included.

There are 3 different packages available...and there are 5 different ones listed on
the page.  The ones that ARE available are the VI, that does not include the upgrade
to S1 4 Pro...and the other two, Recording, and Producing, both of which include the
upgrade to S1 4 Pro...

You can't actually order these.  The site will give you an "Order contains item(s) with unavailable or undeliverable status." when you go to checkout.  Their chat agent says they aren't available.  I know there is another post here of someone that managed to get them to fill it with phone calls but short of doing that this offer isn't really available.

I was told they would fix it too (in chat).  Considering it has been broken since Wed I'm guessing they aren't actually in a rush.  I really don't need it (I already have one of the Q25 keyboards I got years ago for free with something) but Studio One 4 Professional and the BlueCat plugins for $120 seemed like a reasonable deal.

Looks like you would also need to  have a license for an older version of S1 Pro in order to use the upgrade.

No...the Xchange Producer and Recording Packages come with S1 Producer...so that is what you will
be upgrading from
