Minilogue seems to be great, but Nanokey Studio and the announced Gadget update makes me more happy ;-)

I think nano comtroll studio might be a seller, if the buildquallity is decent, nice to combine with a nanopad...

They basically merged nanoKEY, nanoKONTROL (almost) and nanoPAD (almost) into that one thing, nanoKEY Studio. Very cool, I must say.

Yes, and they added a jogwheel to the nanoKONTROL, a very welcome addition.

Forever the optimist---resurrecting the Oasys.
I'm ok when I get to the music.The Oasys 88 sees to that.

Are you kidding? Upgraded ram a 2nd cheap 30gb SSD and its a worthy Kronos 2? Pppffffff Now days a 480gb SSD costs $50. Its time and were ready for something new and great with current technology. Not 10yr old parts from computers with 1/10 the power of an Ipad.

Maybe some new sound libraries or recording hardware.

- Kronos Rack?
- SV-1 replacement?
- Havian 400 (stagepiano based on pa4x)?
- something Analogue?

Offcourse these are just some wild guesses, of things where there would be a market for..


Anyone got any ideas or info of what to really expect?
So here we are... 3 weeks after NAMM..

1 in 4, not that bad of a guess.
Wished the Silver Kronos would have been a silver rack.. but then you cant have it all.

We might see the havian 400 at musikmesse. Seems that european music stores these days have a hard time selling anything with less then 88 keys. When you look at the top 20 keyboard sales at Thomann.de then 16 of them have 88 keys.

Its time for 88 key arrangers, seems the majorrity of home-customers wants those 88 keys.. So Havian 400 with a pa4x insode would seem only logical to me.
