Can't you do the fx internally per channel and/or via individual 
outputs on a mixer?
And if you add another box (drummachine or sampler), you don't 
need all the stuff you do on the octatrack. I think this machine 
would do very well as and EXTRA box, not as a one thing for all 
machine...

For now, I don't see anything in this machine that I would like 
or use, though. I also think the audio examples they have posted 
on soundcloud have been really crappy and uninspiring....
