Hi folks > The average guitar player gigs at home, where their PC lives. Most > folks don't play out, guys. As for PCs, I look at all the college > students in my neighborhood and they're all packing laptops. This is exactly the audience I have in mind!! So, if you have a "out-of-the-box" package that comes with plug&play USB foot controller and nice software (maybe add some free plugin effects?), all together for 80,- USD/EUR, hell, I would go out and buy one immediately, just out of curiosity. IMHO, the audience is _not_ ... professional hardware loopers who pay 1500$ for a Looperlative (that they add to their collection of 2 EDPs, 3 Repeaters and a dozen delay effects...) ... professional software loopers who are using Reaktor, GuitarRig2, MAX/MSP, Ableton, Möbius & oothers, a carefully programmed MIDI footcontroller and a collection of VST plugins for several thousand dollars. No, it's the average kid with his guitar and computer who get's excited about "Garage Band" and wants to be able to say "look, I'm looping!". So, in a way, it _IS_ actually the mass market that M-Audio is addressing. Just needs the right packaging. For anything else, you'd have to have some REAL killer application that Ableton Live or others don't have (and cannot imitate easily).
