Korg Forums A forum for Korg product users and musicians around the world. Moderated Independently. Owned by Irish Acts Recording Studio & hosted by KORG USA
If KORG wants to show musical dominance in the studio at this point, I would expect a bump in output quality.
At a guess, ability to deliver digital output with at least 24 bit, 96KHz resolution.
An improved sequencer interface with a combined pattern/arranger setup, where the patterns can be long enough to constitute a linear sequencer of themselves.
Lavish (and possibly expandable) synthesis engine options, with perhaps a sort of channel strip/effects option along the lines of something like Caustic.
Ideally, the ability to buy various components that add up to the workstation combination that you want. Lots of audio in and inline effects, for people recording the opera. Lots of directly automatable synthesis, effects and mixing for the studio troglodytes.

you should write to them.

intel modules like Edison Compute Module & Joule Compute Module & Quark permits korg to make a more portable high-end like- kronos or oasys , istead of using pc motherboard and pc power supply
would be nice if the forum owners add a sub-section for diy projects under The Creativity Section, maybe users can scratch up some ideas or their dream korg-keyboard in the future

I hope they've teamed up with John Bowen and there is a Solaris in the next Korg (Hybrid) Work Station and all the knobs to go with it too
Anyway, it's too late to wish for functionality now if a new workstation is coming out this year, if indeed there is something coming

Charge us $8K again - since people want so many features, just make it unaffordable except for the people that hardly gig.
You know the type - engineers - want every feature in the book on a keyboard so they can play "we are family" and "1999" on their weekend gigs that they make $25/person.
And of course, borrow from the Kross and make it RED.

I can't believe some of the negative things people have posted about "Tats". I don't know much about the inner workings of Korg, I just know they've always hit home runs but they've really been hitting them out of the park in recent years.
All I have is the Kross and the Minilogue- and I can't say enough good things about them both! Both combined cost much, much less than my Triton did back in the day and guess what- the Kross simply sounds better. There I said it- the Kross sounds way better than the almighty Triton, even though it has more limitations (no sampling, slightly less effects processing)
If you handed me a $30,000 rack-mount analog synth, I would sell it and buy a second Minilogue (and pay off my car and still have money left over) According to the articles "Tats" has been behind the push for affordable instruments for "the masses"- how can that possibly be a bad thing? I hope Korg continues in the direction they've been going recently.

Out of respect for a KORG and Tats.
I am not going to comment anymore on this subject here.
If someone creates a new topic on analogue vs digital on this forum, i will discuss it there.
For me the volcas, monologue, even the monotrons, certainly aren't toys - I'm primarily a guitarist, but compose electronic music, and have been enchanted by the compositional capabilities of all these little and not-so-little gadgets.
If you're open minded enough to frame it as such - and consequently work it into something usable - you can record, for example, a biro scraping along the side of tin can - *even that* has thus become a musical instrument.
The Minilogue is no toy either (well it is, but it's also an astounding instrument) I'm a newbie to analog synthesis, but I'm no beginner at keyboards and synths.
I guess it's a "beginner" analog synth cause there's no patch cables etc and it's very easy to work with. I'm sure there are plenty of limitations compare to a gigantic rack system, but it sounds incredible to my ears, and it opened up a whole extra universe for me.
