  1. maybe there aren’t any crazy new features to show off or anything, but when did overviews and demos start featuring more talking head than product-in-action? I can still hear your voice even when the camera isn’t pointed at you, can you show me the gear now?

    1. That’s on me. This was shot at press preview day and we had to deal with the fact that the devices weren’t hooked up to anything.

  2. This thing looks killer for its control voltage features and step sequencing.

    The fact that it can do control voltage alone makes this a must-buy for me, because otherwise you have to by a MIDI to control voltage converter and those can easily run $200 or more.
