You're probably right. I was hoping for something exciting like an analog synth or new Electribe, but they'll probably spin off a lesser Kronos to replace the M50. They could call it Zeus.

Yes, and perhaps the Zeus would later cut Kronos open, and release the other sibling synths from the belly of their greedy father. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Metrosonus Posted August 28, 2012 Members Share Posted August 28, 2012 I think it was mentioned on gear slutz that the korg forums are kind of buzzing with the expectation of a new electribe release. I don't know what that's based on though.. My dream item from korg would be a rompler based, 16 channel electribe. Basically, take one of their keyboards, scrap the keys and put it into a box with an electribe interface. As much as I love their products (in that genre), I'm kind of tired of the toys they put out. Surely it can't be that hard to cut and paste their circuit diagrams using off the shelf technology? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ChristianRock Posted August 28, 2012 Members Share Posted August 28, 2012 1. Get the Electribe EMX 2. Substitute the 5 VA parts with 5 analogue parts 3. Add some analogue drums, esp. bass drum and snare, combine with drum samples 4. Add the sampling capabilities from the ESX to make it one groove box to rule them all 5. Sell for 899 or even 999 street 6. No extra steps necessary! PROFIT PROFIT PROFIT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Metrosonus Posted August 28, 2012 Members Share Posted August 28, 2012 it's obviously a line of products. I saw that too. I think they only pulled what they were interested in as that site sells arrangers, digital pianos etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not too sure about this. The M50 was a budget version of the M3, plus they already had the microSTATION from that engine as well. To make a real successor of the M50, they'd have to make a successor to the M3. It seems more likely that they'd release a budget Kronos instead of an updated M3. Maybe a microKRONOS! Also, it's been six years since the Radias came out. They only sell the rack version now. If anything deserves an upgrade, it's their VA line.

Members Metrosonus Posted August 28, 2012 Members Share Posted August 28, 2012 I know people had their differences with the radias, but how about an actual tool instead of these "toys"? I mean gaia was obviously a gigging synth and the radias was a.. I dunno, trance machine? I just want a nice, ballsy VA that isn't "aimed" at a market.. the market for that has been so stale for years now, especially from the big three.

The Radias was really only a trance machine if you judged it by the presets. I found it to be plenty ballsy for bread-and-butter VA stuff. The waveshaping also seemed to be a rather under-appreciated feature. You could really dig in and make it scream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
