hmm interesting.  built in 4 track recorder. 

You have twelve minutes recording time in normal tape speed

not a lot but plenty for most stuff.  more info on this would be nice.

can i bounce three tracks into a fourth?


the sampler portion looks pretty interesting.

again more info would nice.

sample time.  do longer / bigger samples use up avaible memory for the four track.  things like that.


its looking pretty cool but the price is the sticking point in my mind.  hopefully its around 500 or so.

Starpause posted a link to a site with information about this somewhere. Drooled over it for a long while.

I love it in principle but fear it might be priced out of my league.
That, and it's vaporware until Musician's Fiend lists it.

You know our dear friend Johan Kotlinski is involved right? I'm just saying because someone had to.

This isn't vapourware one bit. Now if you can afford it, is anotehr question. This will probably enter the rank of "super cool, swedish, almost hand made instruments you will never afford". I still want an Elektron Machinedrum.

Engadget also just did a hands-on with this thing
it's short, but if this is vaporware, i'd be surprised.

Why doesn't it have real keys? Looks like form over function to me...
