Yep. Also, I trust Elektron to fix the bugs and missing features that (for me) mean the TV is not on my list (for now). I don’t trust Roland to fix all of the various bugs affecting the TR-1000. Roland will hopefully fix the worst ones (like the fact that this is an expensive drum machine with fundamental MIDI sync issues…) but on past form there’s a good chance some of the shortcomings will not be addressed, ever.
I think there’s a v high probability the TV will improve and grow over time because while Elektron have form in releasing gear that’s bugged to hell, they also have good form in fixing bugs and adding new capabilities over time. Roland… not so much (it can happen eg TR8s new firmware, but that’s the exception IME).
It’s not just about bringing something new to the market, it’s about something new that actually works flawlessly as advertised (eventually).
