RECEPTOR 2 series get updated to V1.9.

Hopefully you've seen the new items that we have released a FREE update to the RECEPTOR 2 family system software, called V1.9. I know it’s been a while since we released an update, but MuseBox was a "difficult birth" as they say on TV so we've been kinda distracted. But, we now have V1.9 ready to download and install, and it gives you several performance improvements such as better multi-core processing compatibility, improve USB compatibility, new support and diagnostic tools as well as SMART SNAP SHOTS.

I think this image needs it's own thread! To me it looks like the ultimate Kaoss product: Kaossilator Pro KP3 and Kaoss Quad in one machine!

So, the yellow on the left is Kaossilator 2, and the red on the right is the mini KAOSS Pad 2.

AKAI announced the Synthstation 49 at Winter NAMM last year, and it's still not shipping yet. I'd be interested, if it wasn't a vapor product.

Korg at 2012 NAMM New Product Announcement- KRONOS STUDIO.

The Kronos is to be upgraded with new sequencer features from the M3 Xpanded and a lot of new audio editing features are also being added to the 16 track recorder including real time high quality time stretching and pitch shifting. Theres new EXIs including the MONO/POLY, FRT1 'Fretted Instruments' EXI with 4GB of new electric and acoustic guitar and bass sounds (looks like Korg have finally taken Yamaha to task here!). In addition, Korg has added other EXIs to emulate their older digital gear including M1, O1W, Trinity and Triton and they rumour has it that they may even develop a dedicated M3 EXI so they can drastically lower the 2nd hand price of these instruments! The keybed issues have FINALLY been taken care of and 4 keyboard configurations are available- 61 and 73 key semi weighted and 73 and 88 key fully weighted newly designed RH5 action (this action is so advanced that they had to skip calling it an RH4 action!). Stay tuned for more info as it comes to hand about this new top of the line workstation. Even better news: Original Kronos 'Classic' owners will be able to upgrade to the new version for a nominal charge (or speak to Dan Phillips or Jack Hotop and they'll get the upgrade for free if you shout them dinner and drinks!).

KORG KRONOS LE- A 'scaled down' Kronos Studio with no hard disk recorder or sampling but still retaining the HD1 CX3 EP1 SGX1 and AL EXIs (the AL is a scaled down version of the AL1 Kronos Engine). There's still a 16 track sequencer with and a smaller M3 type colour touch screen. Karma has been replaced with 4 arpeggiators.

KRONOS SOFTWARE EDITOR FOR KRONOS STUDIO & KRONOS LE- To be released very soon but if this doesn't occur, then stay tuned for any future announcements at NAMM 2013!

A no, my alarm clock has gone off and now I'm awake! IT WAS ALL A DREAM!!!!!

Disappointing NAMM this year it seems (so far...) - nothing particularly exciting.

But sometimes big announcements are held back to the weekend, so you never know... something GAS-worthy could still emerge!

I disagree. Waldorf Pulse 2 and the Arturia synth alone make this a good NAMM

You're right - I should have put '(for me)' in my post!
