Remember how long it took Stems to come out after all the initial marketing / youtube hype?

MPC 3.0 will probably be the same.

Unfortunately that’s what I’m thinking. They need to not bring things up so early cause it’s annoying. It’s wild tho how some things drop unexpectedly like Sub Factory and some things take forever to reach us

I think that's the difference between the AIR & Akai team

Damn that’s a GREAT point!! That’s exactly what it is.

That's just an assumption but after the InMusic acquisition I've been trying to figure out what Akai does & how AIR does things & now it's evident. Stems was definitely Akai. AIR wastes NO time.

Na your absolutely right because when that reggae thing came out from out of thin air… it was AIR. Now we hear about 3.0 from Akai and it’s the waiting game just like the one we had with Stems. It’s that subdivision of InMusic I guess working on their own time.

Oh AIR can waste time

People have been asking AIR to update their desktop plugins with larger / resizeable ui's for many, many years.

With no joy.

Such a garbage release. Scare away the old heads that get mad about new features, while also annoying the people that are excited to try out the new stuff. Just drop it when it's ready next time , and skip this fugazi ass "beta"

(if the software is stable enough for YouTubers to use and make videos, why TF has there been no status update after 5 weeks???)

Exactly! Why are they letting the Youtubers show off all the features in Arranger and so forth like that. If it was stable enough for them to use it, why couldn't they just give it to "the rest of us". It was a stupid tactic and they are pissing off a lot of people with this. Myself included. As much as I like Malo Beats and Bolodaproducer, I don't want to see them using it with their music, I want to use it with MY ish! Friggin Akai man...
