Whoever is in charge of Reloop's advertising department needs to be sacked.

Whoever is in charge of Reloop’s advertising department needs to be sacked.

What the fuck.

errrrrrm… yeh… the fuck?

or they should get a promotion :wink: vodafone do a similar technique… do a really shit ad because now people like ourselves are talking about it :wink: its advertisement 101 and youve linked the video, people are curious why so they willl watch it… it says reloop several times in the vid… doesnt give a good image of the controller or a good view so people might google it to see … clever bastard :slight_smile:

Does that shit really work with fairly pricey audio equipment? I dunno about you but I’m not going to impulse buy their gear just because I’ve heard the name lately. If anything it makes me less likely to buy due to that fact I feel they have no fucking idea what they are doing.

depends it can go either way, but its an amazing thing to spread the word plus draw you to their site… if youve never seen the controller before you might see bits of it in the video and make you go look it up… i think the controllers look nice but have seen them before… its making us talk about their company one way or the other :slight_smile:

I think that’s alright… viral vibe.

Also, think that that may be be my second favorite controller after the VCI-100 SE.

Realistically though i’d still plumb for an S4 if I was going to replace the VCI…

I just couldn’t buy soemthing by reloop… dunno why. And not at that price…

To be fair, random as fuck adverts can be very successful. Think honda, cadbury’s.

Considering Reloop’s current image, I think stifffy is right. However shitty this ad is, it’s gonna spread rather easily. Now the important factor here is that Reloop’s actually got a pretty good name, they make solid mid-level products. After watching this ad, a lot of people will look some stuff up and find generally positive experiences. Mission accomplished.

If, say, Behringer were to do this, the situation would have been completely different. Shitty ad plus shitty reputation equals, well, not much.

i remember seeing a viral add ages and ages ago where it was for bread and it was 2 old people sitting on a sofa farting… was rather strange

Didn’t mind that

hahaha…

wierd? yes. effective? admittedly, yes…

at the end of it i wanted to find out more about the controller. that’s what counts.

if were talking about terrible gear ads, nothing tops this one… ugh

That is appalling. And at 25s they’ve flipped an APC40 backwards. WHY.

because one knob turns it all FEP… one knob turns it all…

What the fuck.

Sounds like a Mazuma Mobile advert.

That sugarbytes add actually discourages me from buying it

theyre doing something right.

it got re posted somewhere.

lol no doubt.. they really jumped the shark with that..

looks like a fantastic plug-in when you remove the bullshit ad from the equation.

One knob to tuuuurn them allllll.

Seriously though, how much acid does it take to work at Reloop?

I have to say, i lol-ed hard when reloops advert said. “Ready for the next level?” hahahha

but the turnado… man, felt like some toy commercial
