They are thinking they need to recoup their development costs and 
that they might not sell that many units. The components and build 
quality are also very high. Still, that's $500 more than they were 
estimating at AES and NAMM.

You also have to consider the context. This instrument was developed 
by people who are also part of the new Eventide development team, so 
they're used to thinking "high end." I don't expect they are even 
thinking of loopers as likely customers. It's  pitched towards 
recording studios and major touring acts.
