| As a professional and an Oasys owner, I frankly don't care about its retail value, I only care about what it can do for me now in terms of new avenues to creativity and financial rewards.
I've been using the Oasys for about four months now, day in and day out, and aside from a couple of serious reliability issues (I'm on Oasys number 3, currently), the thing has paid for itself!!!
I'm just beginning to really delve into the Karma aspects of this machine, as a composer, I love this whole sort of "random" approach I can bring into my music - I may start off with a Karma pattern and not keep it at all, but I may end up writing something I'd never have written without it - when one considers the fact that a well placed television cue can earn considerable money, tools like the Oasys can really pay off in a hurry.
Perhaps the folks whining about the cost are not the intended market.
