Perhaps the reason why 2.0 is taking a while. If they don't get this a bugfree release, Dan is gonna get face kicked.

Other news, X is beginning to sell more than the Live :o

Where is this from?

Based on preorders from sellers I frequent in NY. Seems people who preordered a Live ditched it for the X. This is based on word of mouth, I grew up with these guys so take it with a grain if you want. But it aint hard to see from other gear sites how the X and Live are best sellers.

Right, yeah. I saw some dudes speculating that the X will sell more in the States and all its hip hop heads, while Live might sell more in the EU.
All pure speculation, though.

And they pushed the Live back to April.



I just get the feeling that the Live wont get to the UKin large numbers until June or July as was the case with the Minilogue last year.

And the X late summer to fall before the device is everywhere.

I just have a feeling they won't arrive at all in the USA until April /may or later.
American musical supply is always running fake shipping dates.
All these sites have vastly different dates , but the Mpcs will arrive at these store within days of each other...
