This is just false, the Korg Electribe 2/ Sampler, the AKAI MPC 500, the Roland SP404, the Roland MC101, the Novation Circuit and many other devices allow the creation of whole songs and can easily be brought into a plane because they run on internal battery.

These devices I listed might not do everything the OP-1 does, but the OP-1 doesn't do everything these devices do either. The OP-1 is hardly an all-in-one music device and certainly not the first portable groovebox that runs off battery power.

A Electribe 2/Sampler costs $300, not $2000.
