Maaaaan! Dave, you’re killing me! We all know that an extra-long developement design time is usually a bad omen- sure enough, I just found out that there won’t be a teaser proto at NAMM!

Shame on you, you should have kept this thing under wraps before releasing pics and info……

I’ll be at NAMM, you’ll see me lurking in the Moog and Korg booths….
WON’T be playing with the LInn, however

Ok, I’ll wait! No build-in-pc-2-boot for minutes and may be PAD-per-Step in a line? Isn’t it better to have 16 raws of (pads with leds fader knob encoder)?

They’ve done a great job of hyping this by trickling out renders of stuff you can’t have. I hope they can deliver something better. The BoomChik still looks the best to me, though!

BlueBrat – the built in synth section is probably the key to the next wave of beat-oriented music.

Hmm, interesting. Looking at the droppe ddesigns, they went form an MPC like layout to something a bit retro or throwback in design and layout, esp. with the large back-part to it as opposed to the controls taking the entire surface area.

So, can someone tell me why this will “enable musicians around the world to better realize the next wave of beat-oriented music” as compared to the MPC or some other such vst?
