Fully accept it has to be multiples of the price of the iOS version, and I'm a huge supporter of moving in that direction - but this is too steep.

It needs to come down below $150 IMO.


Agree, and have ios version for free when you buy mac os one or you pay twice

Seems to be released now.

I can't seem to be able to find a demo download version though, a bit of a leap of faith for me at $200.

I am wondering if the wave station gadget is like the full blown wave station app on iOS?

When you look at MacBook price increases, it's much more painful.

I dint normally post info on price increases on products, but as you can see from the list below, it's absolutely atrocious!

MacBook Pro 2015 i5 13in: Now £1,249, was £999 (£249 increase).

MacBook Pro 2015 i7 15in: Now £1,899, was £1,599 (£300 increase).

MacBook Pro 2016 i5 13in: Now £1,449, 2015 model was £999 (£449 increase).

MacBook Pro 2016 i5 with Touch Bar 13in: Now £1,749, 2015 model was £999 (£749 increase).

MacBook Pro 2016 i7 with Touch Bar 13in: Now £2,349, 2015 equivalent was £1,599 (£750 increase).

MacBook Air 2015 i5 13in: Now £949, was £849 (£100 increase).

It must be that I don't see Gadget as a collections of synths but rather as a groove box, different views I guess.

Can the synths in the iOS version be used in other apps as well?


In iOS they are locked into the Gadget app. With OSX you have the choice of the app or using them as VST/AU synths.

Here's a listing of the individual, independent (in OSX) gadget synths. Roughly half of these are in-app extra cost add-ons in iOS.

Hi Busch,

I have installed the Gadget LE freely from Korg and they don't appear as plugins in my DAWs, is there anything special I need to do?

Thanks for any help.

Andy

Hi Andy

No DAW plug-ins are supplied with LE - It's basically a demo version of Gadget with 5 instruments and no added extras.

I'm still not sure whether to invest in the full version or not

If these are not 'open to hardware upgrades' I would not be interested.

As much as I like Apple/MBP/mac mini, its a huge mistake to close off the machines to hardware improvements.

I upgraded my 2011 MBP to todays spec which is better use of my money.
