16×16 analog I/0 patchbay?
I wish them luck with this, some cool features and not the same old. Maybe a stupid question but how does it have 300+ backers and 300k+ but only 9 rewards out of 400 have been pledged?
there was a private VIP early bird, which doesn’t show up.
ok thanks. never seen that before. I was trying to figure out what was happening…they seemed very happy to meet the goal in 5 minutes but seems they already knew they met the goal weeks ago, and the goal was just a random meaningless number. kinda weird.
The Campaign started just yesterday but they say they already have 322 backers and $300K in cash, yet only nine backers in the Discussion and I see no major rewards claimed. Odd.
they have 21 backers in total
I’m disappointing that they missed the opportunity to lose interest is a deal breaker for me. Never again! More voices, bigger screen, overpriced, +1 FTW!
huh?
that looks like a stroke in written format
Who would blow that kind of money on this first product from 4 guys with no track record? I wish them luck, but it’s just too much money for a shot in the dark.
The private VIP offer was a little over $1k USD, so I’m willing to give them a shot on something like this. If I was looking at the advertised price, I’d stop to think a little more.
Open source pls.
it looks really interesting.. i wish i needed one
