My point is this looks like a do-it-all box that has none of the staying power of something with an interesting and unique workflow.
Guess I’m not the target audience, which is fine. Just kind of surprised by replies of people planning to replace half their gear with this because ‘it does it all!’. Same argument can be used for a PC with Live.
I mean, I don’t know if you have experience with previous Squarp sequencers or have been looking at the manual for this one, but there’s very little in either that is not interesting and unique, IMHO.
Does it get you to the same place as Cakewalk? Yes. Does it do it in a different way? Yes. Such is the story of gear.
I think thats the exciting thing…
Squarp released the Pyramid over 5 years ago, then the Hermod.
so have a lot of experience and feedback to build on.
… and they have also release alot of updates for those products.
e.g the fact they have moved to 192ppqn shows they have been listening and taking notes
as for the judgements…
judging on specs/manual alone is usually a folly with instruments !
if you look at the Octatrack’s Manual you’d think its dreadful, but in practice its a classic.
and as yet, we have not seen how this operates, the workflow…
Im keen to see the videos from loopop and co.
