heh he yeah in one of the demos a guy mentions the washing machine knobs
BUT I'm honestly so stoked on what it does that i don't care about looks. I mean it's the only sampler you can just plop on top of your rig. Here are all the reasons I think it's cool:
A. doesn't need anything else connected other than the output since you can use batteries, it doubles as a portable audio recorder for some ghetto foley fx, recording jams etc.
B. you don't have to load sounds into it every time your gonna use it and if the power accidentally turns off at a gig and you're running an mpc... well ouch.
C. all that looping sync stuff is going to be way easier for most musicians to use than an mpc or computer. It might be a better solution for a lot of gigging artists because it's easy to use and if your playing live instruments with it, it will be easy to incorporate and just trigger your backing tracks
D. it's made to slice up beats
E. it's really got a pretty nice amount of storage space for what it is and since nobody has been really making hardware samplers these days it beats using any vintage samplers.
The down side is every "beatboxer" is going to own one of these...
