Over time I have been able to purchase every available option for my Oasys 88.
Like Sharp, and probably most who have paid for these expansions, I do not feel they should now be given away free.
Instead, I think Korg should create and give us the EFx option for free, since this never materialized during the life of Oasys, which many of us feel ended a bit prematurely.
Doing so would be a wonderful gesture on Korg's part that I'd bet would make a lot of us feel a little better.
Oh, and updating the sequencer would be nice too (lol)....

So, now, we can make a new poll.

As a goodwill gesture for OASYS owners, especially given the cost to Korg would be minimal, and given these items are included in the base price of the Kronos.Sharp wrote:Why should people get for free what others including myself had to pay for?

Owners who have already purchased them probably have had years of use with the instruments.
I don't see this too differently than other software companies drastically discounting their products over time. For example, original purchasers of East West Symphonic Orchestra paid over $4,000 (for Original and XP versions). The equivalent product is now sold for $995.

How about a large discount on Kronos for Oasys owners
Well, in my opinion the difference is that you have to spend another 4000 EUR to get a Kronos within the ´discounted´ MOD7 and LAC i.e. you have to buy a new product.MartinHines wrote: I don't see this too differently than other software companies drastically discounting their products over time.

But think it over: if Korg gives now something for free and ever plans expansions on the Kronos .... how many Kronos customers would wait and not buy the expansions ......
So all this is only theory in my eyes.

Of course you can make a petition to counter this one if you wish.
The expansions should be free. If they are ever given free (which they won't be) and you don't like it, you can always complain to Korg via a petition

The people who are complaining about this are just pure haters .
If I go to the supermarket and buy a box of cereal at full price then next week that same cereal is buy-one-get-one-free , should I be mad at that person for getting a good deal , no because things do go on sale .Timing is everything , I can see if you just paid for them but most of you have had and enjoyed them for years . The real problem is Korg gave them away free to the Kronos and didn't make it free to Oasys which paved the way for the Kronos and that my friend is amazingly unfair .

Dead right
NOT 
I admire everyone's tenacity but - nothing will happen for the OASYS; rightly or wrongly.
The OASYS is last year's colour, so to speak.
The Kronos is the new sexy, little black dress.
