Sebkinne Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 The MK4 is only a prototype. Feature wise and spec wise, information will be released very soon. The MK4 is not close to being completed yet - the MK4s at Shmoocon have the correct hardware but firmware wise they are just a little more advanced than the MK3. What I can say is that the people with the MK4 will be able to upgrade their firmware once the MK4 is properly released. As to a trade in system, I doubt it. Why? For the above reasons. The MK4 will not be available for a while. If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to ask. Best, Sebkinne Edit: The information above is what I know as of now. It is possible that the above changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sebkinne Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 No, you did not. Different hardware and slightly different firmware. The firmware will greatly change over the development of the MK4 though. Best, Sebkinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I treat myself lucky to have the MKIII "collectors" edition and would not be trading it in. I look forward to the evolution of the MK IV and future capabilities.
