Kronos removed from the Korg Website

Post by Synthmaestro »

Could this be the lead up for a new workstation soon?! or has the Nautilus taken it's spot for a bit?

I wonder if there will be a new Kronos, even if it's just a slightly different version.

I still have my old Kronos (2010 or 2011?) and although it's still work, when I ever would need a new one, I really don't hope the Nautilus is the only alternative as the Kronos is harder to find now.

I can't imagine people using the Kronos wanting to 'lower' to the Nautilus (having no ribbon controller, less knobs/sliders and no aftertouch).

I could not agree more.

I don't understand why Korg does not give any clues about the future or at least keeps producing the Kronos until a real new flagship is available. I can imagine they do not want to post information about a new model too early, but calling the Nautilus a flag ship does not give much hope for a decent workstation.

So maybe the future is inside soft synths (after almost 30 years using only Korg synths/workstations).
