I've found Jeff (the author of Mobius) to be amazing in the support and development department. Maybe the best. In fact I was able to buy, have Toshiba configure (one month including shipping) install and configure and learn mobius on my laptop in less time than it took to have Looperlative Audio fix the bug that was preventing me from using the Looperlative for synced looping applications. Perhaps now, the looperlative has more capability than my laptop, but I got frustrated waiting.
