They wanted the hardware to be as flexible as possible. There is audio hardware in the controller for the button sounds, so adding a 3.5mm jack would have been fairly trivial. Having the controller as just a controller at the moment is the _official_ stance. This may change at a future point. If

[slim] Duet Control, plugin earphones?

2008-03-28 Thread mike79
