I was just packaging up my Dwarf this morning to trade it in at the music store after two years in the closet, when I thought I would check the forums one last time. I’m happy to have found this thread, and I appreciate the updates @gianfranco.
Speaking only for myself, the only thing I’m interested in is new firmware updates for the Dwarf. The existing plug-ins are fine for me and I have no use for the desktop app. I just want to see longstanding bugs like losing snapshots, programming difficulty, and audio glitches resolved so that I could program the Dwarf more productively and trust it at gigs.
Would it be reasonable to commit to a new firmware release once a quarter? I think this would demonstrate a commitment to the product that owners like me have been doubting. I’m not even opposed to a subscription model if that’s what it takes to fund it.
Once we see regular firmware updates that not only makes me want to use the product, it makes it worth my time to file bugs and suggestions again, because I can have confidence they will get looked at. As someone who has worked for TASCAM, MOTU, Avid, and EHX I would love to help improve the Dwarf.
