That's the most idiotic thing ever. Seven grand?

This sounds to me like a portable DAW. The problem is that they are not reaching the quality and requirements of full blown DAW.

I can buy a controller, a laptop and tons of software synth for far less than this price.

On the positive note, I really salute them for breaking grounds with this exciting product... if they can only do something about the price.

That's it right there, the A in English class that I never got. If only they made one back then.
What? seven G's? yah kiddin right? Wheres the lights above the keys? it dont have no lighted keys LOL
Seriously though as Steve Martin might say,"Whathe hell is that!?"

PS: wow

Wow, only 7 grand?
...Can't ****ing drive it... !!!

Man, Jeez, it is now. I'm a total sucker for goofyness.

Of course, I would love to tinker with one. (Brother, can you spare a dollar?) There's one way to get Rudolph the red nosed reindeer to buck you in the ass with his antlers.

Hey Morph!
Remember you've said that 3351 is an English army trumpet call?
Can you tell me a bit more about it?
- I got kicked out of high school for smoking grass...

But seriously what does a 3351 stand for (besides my username)
-ED-

That interval grouping represents the advance (proceed in forward direction) command

The major intervals are eighths beginning with a tonic pickup note:
1{command; moderate advance}| |:3351 3351 | 3351 3351 | 3351 3351 | 3351 3351 |{and) 3333 5__3 |{to repeat} 1111 3__1:|%%%| then
| |:{and} 3333 5__3 |(end of command) 1515 1___ :| |%

The trumpeteers in the English army rode tandem to the commander. The commander's orders were translated to a musical progresion that represented it. The trumpeteer's function was to broadcast the command to his flanks.

Many armies used this form of communication to the troops. The broadcast was typically 16 or 32 bars.
Just something I remember from a history chapter in music theory. Surely most of us have at one time or another heard the charge sequence: 1|3531 1 3531 1 3531 | 3333 5___3

I believe I recall this trivia correctly, but don't hold your troops to it.

As far as H.S., besides a piece of paper to wipe the butt with, you didn't miss a whole lot. These days, GED's are just as good. It's nothing as good as you might have thought you missed.

"When I think back on all the crap I learned in High School,
It's a wonder I can think at all,
and though my lack of education hasn't hurt me none,
I can read the writing on the wall. "

Kodachrome by Paul Simon (and his Nikon)

May no one ever take our Kodachrome away.

(A simple 2 verse multi meaningful 'between the lines' song about the depiction of things not always being what they appear to be, but just as well, better off it be that way, we are no fools and all know what the time really is anyway, so we may as well have everything appear to be great, at least we can in knowing the reality of things, create a nice view of it all. Its closest resulting transgression is: It's going to be however it's going to be. No sense in having an ulcer over it, enjoy life.
Paul Simon recorded a great deal of his work at the sound studio I worked at (now known as Ground Zero Rec.). Paul is an absolute musical genius. I'm thankful to have his complete musical history in my library.

Well, you're right Morph.
Knowledge of the theory ain't that important.
I only have a very basic understanding of the theory and I never had any trouble writing music or playing with bands.
All I ever needed to help me write music were my ears, horny female vocalists (like that bad bitch Lysdexia) and a bit of creativity and patience. Well that and some good grass, zig-zags and lots of cold beer, YEAAAH !!!

Theory only helps me communicate with other musicians and in some ways analyze music that I'm inspired by.

BTW
Were did Paul Simon record "Rhythm of the Saints" album?
