Makes sense cause in dutch we say: 'tegen herfst' and he said 'gegen herbst'..

But I'm stiil not convinced that the German Rep has been well informed..

What a f*cking joke of a company


Let's not forget Pete saying they were on the boats heading to stores.

I think that for the end of April is still the real date.


Companies do send out pre-release units, beta versions. I've had one from another company.

Yep, going off what I was told the X was meant to be going into mass production late April, which would mean late May shipping and late June arrival - into Australia.

I'm seeking clarification on this. Hold tight. Hope to have more news tomorrow.

Looks like our Live date is holding true for now.

Thanks AkaiProAU.

What was that date? After that Messe video saying Fall (09/17) I am pretty much over this.
I am going to get my money back for my preorder soon, unless the live drops very soon.

No worries.

We are anticipating the Live shipping late April, arriving into Australia late May - TBC.

I must preface that these dates are TBC. Until the hardware is ready to ship, anything can (and often does) happen.

That sounds good, I hope all goes well, I got a great deal for the Live and I can't see myself cancelling now that I'm in before the lock.

Thanks AkaiProAu!! :smoker:

Hmm I really hope so. I leave for a trip in June. Would love to take the Live with me.
I guess if the Digitakt arrives first I will buy that instead. I can resell it in 6 months and buy the Live if it's released by then :lol:

I've had it for about 4 months now. I love it. Especially the wurlitzerss and the key basses Not yet a good piano player but I just started half a year ago.

Hello from popcorn-eating german Tomsky :popcorn: :lol:

"Gegen Herbst" could mean "around fall" but I rather would use it in meaning of "towards/short tme before fall".
But the guy seems to be very nervous.
Wishfull thinking - I'm waiting for my LIVE.

Judging by what you type in every post of yours I'd say that you are not older than 14 and that you are really, really dumb. Your age doesn't concern me but your stupidity does.

Enjoy getting humiliated every time you post your nonsense in every forum.
