What i meant with the double up ear beef thingy is that a headphone splitter is about $12.

that's been posted, dude.

seriously, you guy can expect your pre-orders to DOUBLE OR EVEN TRIPLE, if you'd just show some videos of the GUI.

I dont wanna see the damn pads or lights or anything. Show me what is going on in the screen.

yeah but it is also great for live situations too.. for example.. if you are using one of those redsound sound bite bpm synch dj samplers or something similar where you run a cable from your headphone out to the thing for bpm synching.... well what if you dont want to lose the headphone output?

very true...

I am not sure about this, but it might be possible. When using the splitters, is it not possible to burn the headphone amp? it is a very small amount of current comming from the output, and putting two sets of headphones might draw more current then it is rated for. I have no idea if this could do any harm after a while... i mean I used to use that exact splitter for some things and it never happened... just a thought.

2 headphones..... We got tired of trying to show someone how to work the streetboxx "here check this out" and then we couldnt hear to give the demo. Yeah head phone splitters are "Cheap" but they can also ruin your headphone out jack and they sound like crap.....

But here is the best reason....

We are working on allowing the tracks to be switchable between Ext midi, Internal sounds or AUDIO tracks..... Which means........ You will need 2 head phones if you plan to track Vocals or Guitar or Bass????

Also audio interface for a Daw so you Can run a session through it...... It's more than just a beat maker.

And when we figure out how to rout individual tracks through it..... Then you will have 6 mono outs.....

But who would want that? LOL

Once again on support..... Im here aren't I? how can you get better support than that? Lets see Jack come in here and answer some tech questions..... You wont need a ton of support though our stuff will be mad easy to use.

Dont mind my grammar and spelling. I make beat machines not english text books. And yes i have just about every drum machine/sampler ever invented. I know my shizzle. Yeah thats right..... Shizzle

Almost 100 pages keep it up folks let's shoot for 1000

AJA

PS. I dont see why we couldnt allow a cpu keyboard to be hooked up to the usb. that would make naming really easy
