Chromium is the worst.

Yeah its lame. Our units use a base Android OS on them (we only do Google Certification for a couple specific models), and probably half our support calls are people trying to sign in to the Google accounts (Drive, Mail, etc) and getting hit with 'Your Browser is out of date' or 'unsupported' errors because it doesn't have all of the stuff Google adds to make Chrome into Chrome. We tell people to install FireFox on them instead which doesn't need any of the Play store crap to run.

Most of them now are Android 11 or 13, but still without the fancy 'custom' stuff the manufacturers do on top of it, Android is a pretty useless OS for most 'normal' people haha.

Akai made an post to let us know that it's going to take a little bit longer for the open beta to arrive:

Not everyone. I bought it yesterday and have made some amazing sounds with it. Awesome!

It's been 5 weeks now, does that mean "a few weeks"?

you should boycott the update when it drops and show them you mean business

he could have made it in a 2 mins video instead of 8 mins

It’s funny seeing comments that people bought an mpc just for 3.0

There seems to be a lot of confusion on what 3.0 actually is/does. Lots of mpcs will be hitting the second hand market a month after 3.0 drops lol

The important thing is people keep buying though. Once that stops, so does any further development or bug fixing.

I guess he needed more time so he could say, "Then... what are we doing " several times throughout the video
