I think the GW-8's going to do very well. The promo videos clearly suck donkey butt.., I think we all can agree on that However.., in all these vids we've seen it's clear someone needs smacked.., and smacked hard.

The GW-8's shortcomings (in terms of sequencing ect) can easily be overcome with a software sequencer. All you need are the instrument files (if memory serves me correctly I thought I saw a link on a site somewhere for the GW-8's instrument files too, not sure what app they were written for though).., and you could create all your sequences on the PC or Mac then slide them on over to the GW-8. Plus using a software sequencer you could overcome the MFX (live only issue) by doing a few audio tracks.
