I don't understand how they can go to the trouble of putting out an incremental update that fixes minor issues while completely ignoring more major functionality malfunctions (especially Assign to Slice).



The brand is **** up. I sadly only recognized it after i bought into the system. And it's such a shame. There is so much potential but they are just focusing on all the wrong stuff all the time. And worst of all, no **** transparency for us as customers. I really got tired waiting for fixes. I try just to use it for what it is and work around it's problems, causes much less headache

Oh Akai :lol:
If it makes you feel any better, at least Akai isn't as bad as Teenage Engineering:

Amid insurmountable complaints about the quality control of their products, a virtually non-existant PR/help department, & releasing a flopped modular system
TE have just released a clothing line of plain, 1-color tshirt/sweatshirts selling for $80/$170 & a "modular" case system made up of plastic waterproof sandwich-bag-like 'cases' that sell for $190

I'm gonna stop complaining about akai until 3.0... :lol: :popcorn:

He's not joking. The TE store is whack. I mean, cool on them that they've created a market for this stuff, but uhm... I don't get it.



They're a design firm, consumer electronics company, and life style brand. Their products are made from the esthetics point of view first, not the musician point of view.
