Yes, Torben. I'm sad too regarding the state of Mobius. But from Jeff's posts at the Mobius forum there is no doubts about his wishes for getting down with the new Mobius. He did invest in a high-end GUI coding library to make it really "pro looking". The issue seems to be lack of time, since Mobius isn't a commercial product. Jeff is a good programmer and at the moment I guess his services are required full time at his day-time job. I upgraded my Macbook Pro from 8 MB ram to 16 MB and didn't notice any increased capabilities at all for looping. The reason I took that upgrade is that on 8 MB I couldn't run certain KONTAKT 5 sampling libraries within the 4 MB active-in-application RAM limit there is for a 32-bit OS. But running my DAW at 64-bit code I could read all those long samples into RAM and work very fast. When live looping you really don't need to juggle around 4 MB in RAM so 32-bit tools work just as good as 64-bit.
