RE: Virtual Repeater




> The Virtual Repeater was very close to being finished

Does anyone have first hand evidence of that?  I paid fairly close
attention to this back when the hype machine was rolling and never saw
anything that suggested it was more than screen mockup, a PowerPoint
presentation, and a lot of tantalizing advertisements.

They made some vague comment about their "distributed development"
department which I read as "we don't actually have any salaried
engineers yet".

You would think if it was very close to being done they would have
updated that embarrassingly contrived YouTube video.  It was so
freakin' obvious.  He starts by demoing the Hardware repeater, then he
moves over to the virtual repeater and "operates" it to show that it
does the same thing.  There were four rows of loop waveforms that
never changed, even when the loop was empty.  The transport counter
never changed even while it was "playing".  The only thing that
moved was the bouncing level meters and the highlighting of
the selected track.  Quite amateur really.
