Looperlative Observations (and 1st post)



Hi all, I've been lurking here for a while.  Since I am one of the
first 30 or so people w/ a looperlative and some, uh, controversy has
sprung up regarding it, I felt I should post.

My way of looking at this is that you're buying a chance to be on the
ground floor of a product's development.  Kinda like buying a modular
from some guy named Moog back in the 60's. It's a chance to help shape
something, rather than just getting a product off a shelf.  OTOH you're
buying an unfinished product.  I am OK with that, because it already
has enough functionality to be worth it for me.  I also know from
experience that software engineering is never fast enough or bug-free
enough.  That's the price you pay for being on the cutting edge. 
Sometimes you bleed.  If you bought it to do something it doesn't do
yet, based on Bob's rather vague pronouncements, and you need it to do
that RIGHT NOW, you will probably be dissapointed.  I am not faulting
Bob here at all.  He has to be vague; that's just the nature of the
beast.  Stick with him and I think it will do everything he has sort of
promised it will do.  It will just take time.  As for when you can get
one for 599, probably never, unless Bob gets sick of all this and sells
out.  Which I hope he never does.  

(If you do get sick of it all Bob, just open-source the code.  You can
still build the boxes...just spitballing here).

My Two Cents, 
"Some Dude"
