I would like one with the OASYS label on it, as it would then be in keeping with the OASYS theme as such. Call me anally retentive, but the OASYS label looked great on the dust cover. Too many do gooders around, and as for violating Korgs trademark, perhaps legally speaking it does but come on we are all OASYS users in here, and at the end of the day its just a blasted dust cover, not some kind of software that will take away trade from Korg, in fact I would have thought it was good free advertising. Oh well, on that note its all rather petty and pathetic, and perhaps those arguing the legal aspects should get on with making some music on their own OASYS instead....or should we call it a KARO now

Thats enough from me, enough time wasted writing this. I guess I will be getting one with a KARO label now.

I see just as I have written this that Karo have removed the OASYS label from their photos on the dust cover page. Could you also add the photos showing it with the OASYS LCD in the up position. Thanks

Do Gooders?? Good Free advertising?? Your sic!! OASYS does look good and when Korg licenses someone to make a cover it will be a quality one and a nice fit!! FYI, Korg does have a website to sell accessories..so did you stop and think that they may be offering one sometime? Karo obviously didnt check into licensing before printing..or bother to negotiate any license fees? For $53 US shipped, I would think it should have some kind of soft padding or foam underneath...plus a provision made for the LCD screen!!

Sorry, I dont support.... or buy from someone printing licensed logos on items to sell it for a profit!

Nice weekend to everyone.

The OASYS has been out for almost three years now, and Korg has never even hinted about ANY plans to create ANY OASYS branded accessories.

Many forumites have requested OASYS logo items, but it appears Korg is not interested.

Hi EWBR,

LOL, the Mickey & Minnie dust cover would be great. Maybe a little bit of photoshop on that with them playing an OASYS would be even cooler, and surely one wouldnt need a licence for that

Thanks for the 2 new photos on your site with the LCD up too. Its not a 100% fit but should do the job, so thanks.

Martin is right. You want the Korg boys to sit in front of a sewing machines making bloody dust covers lol So far we have no dvd tutorials ( from korg ) and no dust covers - this is a good sign that korg are tooooo busy working on oasys updates for us - as it should beeee

Ah Sniff Sniff.. Martin, maybe we can see if Karo can make you an OASYS T-Shirt ? They make everything else with the OASYS logo stamped all over it.. CDs, software etc.!
