Was only a few days ago that Dan said on Reddit that they're still working on 2.0, so I wouldn't hold my breath.
But we'll see – or not, which is my best guess.

So Akai was able to announce the LPD8 Wireless and release it the same week. I was only able to find it at sweetwater READY TO SHIP in limited quantities.

I didn't see it listed at Guitarcenter or zzounds, i'm not sure what places you guys use overseas so I didn't check those.

So maybe when ever they announce LIVE it will be available shortly after.

All I can say is if what I have been told is true, karma is real.

When this person told me about certain events, I just shut up. After I watched a portion of that video, the first thing I thought about was karma.

Even though this person is a friend, I still know the three story rule. This has nothing to do with the law, just karma.


I just want to know what this dude means with this post because it's very vague. :hmmm:

Black Friday release, just like "Eclipse", was a rumor from Guitar Center. I hope nobody was holding his breath.
However, I do hope Akai will get it out soon; hype will not last long, and people are buying stuff for Xmas (as well as blowing cash on Black Friday deals) already, and soon, they'll be broke. Now'd be the time.

My best guess is they'll take their time and present it all at NAMM.

I think generally people prefer to have some sort of story so that they can interpret the message themselves......otherwise the message is just your opinion....

I'm not bothered either way, but your post was a bit like waking someone up to tell them to go to sleep....


You would rather hear who did what.

Yeah right and when the Eclipse/Legacy and Live drops you are going to be the one to say that you knew it all along.. :Sigh:

I'm guessing they will announce it at NAMM as well. Black Friday makes no sense when it exists specifically to move old stock to meet a yearly sales deadline. So it would make no sense to introduce a new product today. However they could introduce it in December and move a lot of units for the holidays if they're ready to ship.
