They DID announce that they've worked on drastically improving boot time. Let's see what happens with that. I've already put in my order today.

That's totally and utterly the most universally stupid thing ever. There's no way on earth I would buy a workstation for 3+ Grand that didn't even have a sampler. I'm really shocked by that. :cry: Don't be surprised, buddy, they've been daft about necessary and normal things needed in their high ...

If I go with MBP its gonna be 16Gig ram with fastest i7 etc as that is the max as of now, heard they were coming with 32 gig ones but not sure. I'm sorry to say, but they are not, not anytime soon anyway. They keep doing their yada-yada-yada about how 32GB in a laptop will have a significant impact ...

OTOH, sometimes because of overdubs (or multiple players), it is actually impossible for anyone to cover everything that's on the recording. So then, some of the art of the performance, so to speak, is making the decision of what to leave out, or how to adapt a part so as to "kind of" cover more ...

Bullshit. Plain and simple. take several classic keyboard tunes by keyboard giants, and they played everything. Rick Wakeman, Emo, Tony Banks. Eddie Jobson, Tony Kaye. Hell, ever Daryl Dragon or Richard Carpenter. They covered everything. It's because of "musicianship." Yes, I said it again. It AIN ...

One issue is having enough real estate, like if you need a top-to-bottom right hand keyboard run to happen over a left hand part that is playing something in the middle. Another issue is time. You can't always spare the time to play a part with your right hand, go up to change a patch for a little ...

While i firmly disagree with you, i respect your point of view on playing and using the "technology" available the way you do. What i do not understand at all is your harsh comment's to Joe Gerardi 's post. In what way did Joe labeled "someone as "something""??? I've read his post countless times ...

Ah. okay. You're not playing it, you're letting the keyboard play it for you. That explains a lot. See, I'm talking about musicianship, and the ability to play music, not the ability to press a button and let something else do the work for you. I dicked around with Karma, then I turned it off: I ...

Because you can't. You simply cannot play all the parts of the various music on one board. tell me how you would play ELP's "Pirates" when the first run is 5 octaves long and there's a pulsing left hand, and in the middle of that there's orchestrations. Same for Karn Evil 9 ("Welcome Back My ...

Well, that and how basic most keyboard parts are today- I used to play a lot of Genesis and Journey, and Styx, and Mr. Mister, Simple Minds and Tears for Fears, and a whole lot of others, and there's no way people today can do that on one board; the one-finger and block chords of most new stuff ...

That's just amazing, man. Thanks.

Now where are those additional program and combi bank locations when you need them? DAMN!

Sorry, but (for a player) there's no context in latency when you're playing live or recording. It's just a latency, and it's usually annoying as hell. And latency when playing Kronos is noticeable, I'm afraid. When I'm playing it, sometimes I get the feeling that it's worse then on OASYS, which ...

MainStage is pretty good but in my experience it's too limited in letting you decide memory management. That means you'll run into trouble with large projects, like having the equivalent of the Kronos' 3000 sounds available simultaneously. The whole "global" bus/instrument thing is also geared ...

It's the first one (not GT) with 128MB card etc

It's all about the GAS, about the GAS

Get it, you won't regret it

Having said that, having that in a keyboard form factor would be most interesting. I think it's pretty difficult to expect for that to happen. But, I'd be nicely surprised it if happens :-) Meanwhile, I really like this concept: http://musiccomputing.com/tanto-macos-x-61-key/ But, as it is, I'm ...
