OK fine, I get your point, but like i said the guy at GC said it was much more than 404, which it is not loop capture does nothing for me personally and I dont use it, played with it and I can see it being useful for some, but I like all my stuff seperated (drum, bass, strings, etc....) so this just isnt for me or my style of working. So paying $520 US (what I paid), retail is $595, compared to the 404, which I can get for about $300, it just simply is not worth it for me! IMO, $300 for 1 track is one thing, but $600????? I used it for about 5 days but spent many hours on it and although it is not a step back, it has upgrades like the loop capture, audio interface and effects, but none of these do I use or would I use in the future. Also, like I said the GC salesman said it was 4 tracks and if it had been that in itself would have made it worth the extra $220 to me (for how I work)! I got my money back and bought
the KP3 and some software, so I ended up with $520 worth of gear I love, rather than whatver I could get out of it used 6 months down the road, my few days with told me all I needed to know about how it would or would not work for me and the price vs the features I use made it a poor fit for me. I was not at no point saying it was a crappy product, but use
a MOTU Traveler live, with pre set or pre recorded samples (I just use the 404 to trigger my samples), and I have the KP3 for my effects, so what of the new features do you see benefitting me personally, because I just did not see it, if I am wrong tell me, I will gladly admit it if I overlooked something. A piece of gear can be great for one musician and not work at all for the next. I admit that I have set way, maybe even a bit restrictive way of working, but it works for me and that is Ok with me.
Now, my main issue all along was the fact that I felt insulted, maybe I took it too seriously fine, I will accept that, but why do people in here have to even do that? I mean my initial comment was meant to be a lite remark and you indicated you did not intend to insult me, looks like we both made assumptions, huh? I did not put an lol but neither did you? I am not all up in arms at just this one incident, but I try to come in here to legitimately help others where I can adn get help or advice where I may need it, but I do not think that I or anyone else should make comments that insult people, so I just got tired of seeing it and kina blew up! I apoligize for that! It was not all on you.
I just dont understand why people have to criticize and degrade others on these sites? Rarely do people even know each other at all? It just seems so stupid to me and I will tell you if that is how it is here, than I will stay off, because that is not why I come here and I really dont think it is why you come either? You dont seem like that kind of guy to me now? Those that do just come in here to try to insult and shyt on others, ruin (IMO) this great website with good and good information. I just dont see the point and again I just got sick of it, thats all.
In the end, Im over it and I hope you are as well. I did not mean to get all pissed of and I aploigize for my insult towards you, that was doing exactly what I despise and I apoligize for that.
