NanoTracker/Wedge

[amiller]

A couple years ago I was reading about Alesis releasing a small sequencer, the NanoTracker, but I have never seen one for sale.

Also, it seems like the Wedge was a very short-lived reverb unit. The only place I have been able to find these is on ebay.

Anybody know what happenned??

I think the Wedge was discontinued because it's desktop design wasn't really the best. Having four audio cords and a power cord coming out the back takes up more space that you would think.
I like having it close by when I mix ... but it's not really portable the way I've tried to hide the cords.
Everything about the actual unit I think is great, though ... the audition button is very convenient ... and the editing functions (the faders) are really easy to operate. Plus I think the reverbs and effects are really good ... and there are lots of them (127 Preset - 127 User).
I think a rackmount version with the same features and sounds would still be selling pretty well. But that's just my own opinion.
