If this is "just" a Triton, it had better be seriously beefed up in some way. Have MOSS implemented internally in software, along with a KingKORG, along with a bunch - read all - of the expansion roms, along with wave sequencing, along with KARMA, along with more polyphony and better effects, along ...

Well, it has been a while. Got wrapped up in two album projects and lusting after studio gear. Anyhow... Along with the above lists - put the good ones together and KORG can keep dominating for three years - here are mine. More piano models, including popular vintage keyboards like harpsichord ...

I'm saddened by this news too. :( In my case, I loved his work best in UK, a group which has proven to be amazingly popular over the years with only two studio albums to leave their mark in music history. The musicianship from all involved was top notch, but the pairing of John Wetton and Eddie ...

In complete disrregard of Akos Janca's warning, some further NAMM gear news. :wink: In case you have been living in a sheltered studio for the past weekend, some whiz kid named Jacob Brashears made an OB-X desktop clone called appropriately enough, the Relic-6. By the number you should have known ...

Yeah, the DeepMind 12 is quite the vunnderkint for a lot of people, but if you look at it closely, the most amazing things about it are the effects and the price. Well, and the discrete circuitry in the audio path. But I'd rather have one of the Dave Smith offerings myself, particularly the OB-6. I ...

As someone else pointed out: Korg's current workstation flagship is amply functional and inspiring for even the most demanding people. I was definitely one of those people. The Kronos could stand a successor not long from now, but it could use a facelift to keep it in the mind's eye of the ...

Back on topic - you know what - it's REALLY quiet on the NAMM rumour s front! Anyone else notice that. Usually there's _something_. This year - nothing! Perhaps winter NAMM is starting to go the way of summer NAMM in terms of relevance for new announcements ??? It depends on what you want. Dave ...

(memo to EvilDragon, use what works) Of course, that's a given, man! When TR-Rack doesn't work (and I really use it for those lush pads and motion synths, since that's what it's best for), I have... FS1R, K5000R, Microwave I, JD-990, MKS-70, Blofeld, N1R, PC3K8... and a heap of VSTi... and some of ...

The JDXA does a much better job at sounding analog, even in mixed analog/digital mode. Well, I would expect an analog synth to sound analog. :wink: Maybe it's the effects, but the demos I listened to of the Ju106 plugout sounded quite a bit juiced up from the original. But I see this as a good ...

can anyone tell me im looking forward to get a kronos so many out there any reason to buy a new model or the old will do the same job As Koekepan says, an old Kronos is about as good, good sounding and useful as a new one. A newer Kronos has a 60GB SSD drive and twice the ram, but you can upgrade ...

Roland. The SN synth engine in the Jupiter-50 and 80, the FA workstations, the Interga-7 and especially the JD-XA with its delicious analog synth section is just wonderful. The reverbs may not be the best but they do the job well enough. And the samples, while fairly old, are amazingly relevant ...

I haven't come across anything from Roland which clarifies exactly what material in the FA warrants this warning, but if I were in the shoes of a manufacturer I would try to avoid these kind of warning labels by using different materials ASAP. As long as you don't eat your keyboard, you'll be fine ...

Just to spin this a bit more, and because I love to dream of synths. :wink: Imagine how anything KORG makes will have to stand out. What is on the market now, new and used? Kurzweil. Even the venerable K2000 and K2VX are capable of some amazing sounds today, 20-plus year old synths. Add in some ...

"The future of electronic music" is quite an avidly debated topic. I'm hoping that one day, every synth maker is producing their own Synclavier 9600 system with a nice big flashy controller, a big ribbon and the usual controllers, and a polypressure keyboard. But that probably goes with flying cars ...

Well, it's been too long since I visited. :wink: Happy New Year! If KORG wants to make a splash this NAMM, the New Toy needs to be one of these things: a Kronos successor with more engines a megasynth/rompler like the Montage - but I'd rather have a workstation a powerful modular VA like Arturia's ...
