so can you adjust the start and end points of the sample on each button ? If so, I'm sold.

Edit: Just watched the video, think ill order one I already have the Sub pocket operator

Wow indeed! This looks like an incredibly fully fledged, independent sampler if you can get accustomed to the limited interface.

When are you estimated to receive this PO? Shipping starts next month by the looks of it? I'd be curious to hear your impressions or demonstrations of it in action, in beatmaking that is.

My only worry is the quantization

One the videos mentions you can adjust swing, so it should sound fine. Volca Sample can sound similarly stiff but the swing setting actually does its job there at least.
Personally I was wondering about the lack of changing sample speed. Sampling to melodic scales the sample to all buttons sure, but you can't fine tune it apart from tempo+pitch combo'ing apparently.

on the manual i found an effect called "6/8 quantize", a kind of non ordinary quantize thing, i think, but well, not a simply and normal quantize, but...
ot
what i like about this machine vs the volca one is that you can directly sample from it
