Hmmm... We _are_ on the Waldorf list! :)


If you bought a P3 because you liked it's features, then the P3 will 
continue to serve up those features for as long as you own it.


I used to be PO'd about buying "A" only to see "A.2" show up a week later, 
but I kinda' got over it. I mean, I have gear here from the 70's ('68 
even!) and it's still going strong.


My most recent run-in with this was SoundArt announcing the Chameleon MK II 
less than a week after getting my MK I (and not even being able to fire it 
up yet!). But, the Chameleon is the machine that I'd been wanting for 
YEARS, I got it for a great price, and I'm damn happy that I did.

...but I'll admit hat I also pre-ordered a Chameleon MK II yesterday. :)

I'm certainly not "mad" at SoundArt for continuing to set their sights 
higher and higher, an I know that I'll want some of the features in the MK 
II. Given that it's almost a year out from shipping, I'm banking on having 
had a lot of fun with the MK I and looking forward to _adding_ a MK II 
along side of it.

It's the same with the P4. Kudos to Colin for continuing to do dev work on 
his visions. I'll probably add a P4 to the pile - and I haven't even built 
my P3 yet (though it's been here in the box for MONTHS)!
