With a tone so pure -- it was never muddy.
Just a twist of the formant knob: baby to beast!

the plight of deca-buddy
2005-07-02T16:01:06+00:00
well it's just plain funny now....okay, I first tried to order it on dec 1st 04, I was told it would be in stock (doesn't matter where you looked or look now) on 12/15, then 12/28 (I cancelled it here),then like 1/5, then it went to 1/30, 2/28, 3/30, 4/30...ect...june 30th came and it's 7/20...
when I cancelled the order I called a friend at Akai's service center in Texas (no longer Akai). That's when I found out that Akai was acquired by Numark last August.
Well folks imo (and I have lots to base this on) Numark is the worst music gear manufacturer there is. Now it's coming up to a year...is this what we are to expect from the future? It's my understanding that they have dropped deca-buddy. However I am not sure, but if they have why dont they tell people?
Knowing the customer service and the the lack there of first hand from Numark, combined with this display clearly suggests it would be unwise to ever purchase another Akai product...that saddens me very much... :(
I did get clone ensemble and this sure opens the door for developers imo to create another great pluggin (nudges Aleksey) for creating harmonies...:D

The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another's world. It requires profound, purpose‐larger‐than‐the‐self kind of understanding.
