Re: Re: Creamware Scope - computer based looping?

Yeah, Scope looks like the future...until you see the price ($6,500 is a 
LOW
estimate, based on what I've seen in recent press releases), and then 
realize
that this is really just the next generation of Symbolic Sound's $4500
Kyma--which can also do whatever you want with sound, all at the same time,
and has a long development history and helpful user base--(Scope uses the 
new
SHARC dsp chip, instead of the old Motorola workhorse that Kyma uses), but 
the
price is going UP!
btw, the SHARC chip is already in use in a +/- $1000 card from Analog 
Devices
that runs CSound (an even earlier blank-slate dsp program) in realtime. 
When
the SHARC chip shows up in something from Roland ( or Korg, etc....), THEN 
the
likes of US will have seen the future!:-)
