Re: Epic Octatrack Performance Sampler Teaser....

That was my point, Antony...while I found the concept amusing, it's
also a sad comment on how they've chosen to market this to us. Is it
cool that the Octatrack was used to create the sounds for the film?
Sure, but what a crappy, stale, sad way to show it off.

Oh, well...I won't have to worry about it. Right now it's still
vaporware anyway.
