And yes it's $3499 and comes with a fully loaded version of Live 7 + 14GIG sample library.

Aside from the ipod dock and price, I like the idea of it!

mmmm barbeque....

nice

I like the idea, but have to say I think the execution lets it down. As per usual, it's the little things that make a big difference for me. Namely, the screen should be tilted for easier viewing, and WHY such a limited number of knobs? I just don't get it, even with the touchscreen. That layout could make so much better use of the available space.

For each channel you really want a minimum of one fader and six knobs to control: volume, pan, 3 band EQ, and 2 send levels. Why doesn't a proper mixer layout MIDI controller exist???

I guess it's nice, but it's basically just a laptop plus one or two midi controllers but less flexible (although handy to have everything in one box).

thinking exactly the same
not for me

Their products are not smart. They look convincing at first, but when you take a closer look they just turn me off. They're like offering you a lot of muscles with no flexibility.

Bah..."comes with Live 7"(!)
lame!

will appeal to wedged up punters new to production.

Sure they'l make loads of mullar from noobs with trust funds.
