This shit sounds familiar - like some of our customer emails... Are you trolling me via email?

I swear I am not trolling you via email or any other means.
It was a tongue in cheek response to the OP (but actually based on stuff I do in my solo project, I can provide model numbers etc if you have been dealing with a moron (not you Drod) - fat lot of good stuff 50 years OOP will do).

I watched the kickstarter video. When the guys use the pad thing it looks like they are trying to wipe dogshit off their boots.

Thanks for the feedback, I've now added an A4 / US letter size for people who want a smaller version and I'm making a MIDI to expression style converter, because quite a few people mentioned controlling expression pedal style stuff as well.

Think I can do one of those and it's not the belt buckle...

2. Surprise us! My Liquid Foot does a lot for being a piece of hardware(kinda), I wouldn't mind a LFO generator in it.
And yes, cool concept but I find it awkward to use with my foot, I guess for tabletop setups would work best but... tablets.
Awesome, added one of those and from a request on the Chase Bliss users group I've added a MIDI recording / macro / looping option. I'm trying to avoid calling it a looper because people will assume it's audio, but it loops the MIDI. I'm really enjoying it for auto-wah style stuff and trippy delay changes.

I asked questions, then implemented the things people asked for... If there is a better way about it, I'd love to hear. Alas this board didn't seem to give me a notification like the others did. I'm trying to find out what lots of different people want including the Eventide fans, Chase Bliss fans and other groups. If you've got any I'd love to hear about them. I've implement 2 things suggested on this forum, smaller sizes and LFOs.

It just records what ever your doing on the controller for example changing CCs or sending notes / program change messages. It can't loop incoming MIDI as Poly Expressive only has physical MIDI out ports. Though I guess you could record stuff coming in over bluetooth MIDI... I hadn't actually thought of that and have no idea what to use that for. It was a feature request so I'm not sure exactly what they wanted to use it for but I've chatted to a few people that use automation recorded in a DAW and trigger those clips live.

Try asking the questions before asking for money next time. Try engaging with, and becoming part of, the community you are trying to get money from instead of using it as a free survey next time.

Yea but that's counter productive to marketing bro.
In all honesty it actually is. lol.
I would say we need advertisers to either A) not be approved (which is next to impossible) or B) force them into one area. Like a "spam your shit here place". I mean, that isn't the Shark Tank obviously.

Jwar you realize this is literally no different than the TG thread where you posted "I don't care bro you do you", right?
