I've only just heard about this but Korg should be quaking in their boots.

nice, but will not match any qualityclaims. its a toy. but you can use toys for creating music.

I know it's just a toy and the sound quality isn't all that (though it's not bad to say it is a toy). You can get it for about £21 on Amazon over here too, which is a bargain for such a thing.

I posted it up here partly as a joke but partly because what it can do is not unlike a Kaoss Pad. Just one aimed at a slightly younger market. It's not as far as it first appears behind Korg...

Only a few seconds off the loop time allowed for the Kaossilator Pro too.

And I wouldn't be surprised if someone would be able to hack it and/or the software to allow it to take your own samples too.

It seems that the Audioquality is okay if you use headphones.
It can tempochange with pitch!

I ALLREADY LOVE IT. I BUY IT!

See? It is pretty impressive for a toy. Hence Korg should watch out. They need to up their game. Being compared, albeit with tongue in cheek, to a kiddy toy is not good for a "pro" company.

Also, I had read that nomeist link you posted but didn't read as far as the comments. Excellent. I need to cancel my Kaossilator Pro order now...

The U-create is more like a mixture of kp3 and sampler and Kpro.

I'll wait till I get both. Then I will do a 30$ vs. 400$ review.
And it will be a hard time for the KPro. And in the end I will keep both I guess

I intend to get both too. And keep both. Especially as it seems quite likely that you'll be able to load your own samples onto the U-Create.

However, if I get that too, my set-up is going to be as much like a playroom than a music studio...

sounds good!

You haven't heard it yet! :p

But hopefully it will sound good or, at least, interesting...

And hopefully it won't just attract the wrong demographic... I don't fancy only being able to get gigs at nurseries and kids' birthday parties.

I *think* that was the same device Brian Eno was using in a documentary I saw about Herbie Hancock called "Herbie Hancock: Possibilities." Unfortunately it was hard to get a good look at the thing, and alas the Eno segment was rather short...
