PolySix reissue looks more probable:

All the colours resonate with the Korg 'Poly' series, so must be one of them. The PolySix certainly has more instant tweakability and is considered a Korg classic (having been emulated numerous times), whereas the Poly61 or 800 are less so.

It's probably another range of Guitar Tuners

and a matching guitar strap in those colors

Oh know, i got tears rolling down my face from a mini key kick to the groan

Wait a minute, maybe its a Kronos Module

to be serious, I mentioned a Kronos app/module a few weeks ago.

A new smallish keyboard product does not need silly mini keys, IMO. Any small controller of choice will work.

I was forced to program and play a P61 once... I still have horrific flashbacks.

Strange, I was pretty sure I posted a comment on another forum earlier today about the colour of Electribes, and a stupid idea (perhaps) of them being bundled together in some form - I can't find the post now, looks like it may have been pulled

Is the Poly61 the same as the PolySix (I am not familiar with those) ?

Could it be a tenth Kronos engine ?

No, it's a different thing altogether. It's a 6-voice DCO paraphonic synthesizer (has just one filter and one amp for all the voices), whereas the original Polysix was fully polyphonic 6-voice, with VCOs.

Both units in one, twice the power, all bugs ironed out, all user features requested in the petition, and then some.

Since the e2/es2 relaunch, all the other colors are covered.

Don't put the blame on me if I'm right.

Who thinks Poumtschak should be banned if he's right?

(My guess is it's a 2600. Someone high profile I know who I'd guess is in the know has just put their ARP2600 up for sale)

EvilDragon · Post by **EvilDragon** » Wed Oct 26, 2016 9:12 pm

Those colors have absolutely nothing to do with a 2600.

I just hope it won't be a TOY"O'RUS keyboard.

Surely not Mr. Doty? He wouldn't give up his beloved ARP would he?

Maybe it is a universal Kronos keyboard case that can withstand the rigors of
airline travel. IF it is too big... just stuff soft foam in there to take up the extra space.
