Can't wait for Clippy to show up, whilst jamming with the boys.

Its just as likely to happen during a studio recording, and yet the entire studio industry runs on windows or mac OS and somehow keeps ticking....Its not AS time critical, but it would still be a huge issue.

Except that people in a studio are musicians who understand the score in 2024. They’re not some average person (in a crowd of hundreds or whatever) expecting to be entertained.

When is the last time you had clippy or its modern equivalent destructively interfere with your DAW? I can remember mine because I was CRAZY pissed and ranted all over the net about it, 2007

I don’t know, because I don’t run Windows. It was a joke, dude.

Looks cool. If I start gigging with a PC it'll be because I want to run MIDI Guitar with a Roland pickup so I'd still need something more capable as an interface - GP10, GM800, SY1000, etc. At that point, I'd rather just use one of the existing machines I already have.

I get the appeal of this though. It'd be great for a lot of situations for guitar, bass, vocals, drums, and/or keys.

Per the Roland pickup, I take it you mean MIDI guitar in general here, and not "MIDI Guitar" as in "Jam Origin"? I agree, if you're going to stick with a GP10 or similar, you can just as well use a cheaper tablet PC, or even an iPad. (Are the more recent Roland modules USB class-compliant yet?)

I like the way the CE-1 (and the Octave) eliminate the need for an external audio interface. I could plug directly into either, and run Jam Origin with a couple of softsynths and an NDSP VST or two, and be good to go. Maybe wrap all of that in Camelot Pro to make seamless switching between synth voices possible. Trying to do this with an old iPad means using external h/w for amps/FX and audio conversion. Plus the iPad is less stable with a heavy CPU load, and Jam Origin has been dragging their feet with MG v3 for iOS. (To be fair, the Windows version isn't ready for prime time yet, either.)

Has anyone confirmed this is a TheSycon audio interface yet? Still kind of lusting after this thing, or a much more powerful version of it
