Members The Pro Posted July 13, 2005 Members Share Posted July 13, 2005 Originally posted by Analog Kid damn you guys are optimistic. Not me. Summer NAMMS are often dull and this year will be no exception. I predict no surprises.The CME controllers are looking good and multiplying like rabbits - two new models have just been announced. All other controller makers look like they are standing still in comparison. +1 on the 76-key "Novation X-Station 76" that acoustictones is dreaming of. The X-Station is still the leading bang-for-the-buck VA/controller/interface and I suspect Novation will try to build on it's success somehow, but not this month.No cheerleaders at Summer NAMM - just the usual eye candy at the Gemini booth...

Members acoustictones Posted July 13, 2005 Members Share Posted July 13, 2005 Originally posted by Analog Kid damn you guys are optimistic. Ditto The Pro...there ae predictions and wishes...big difference.I get excited at every show, but I try not to get my hopes up for Summer NAMM.But we can still WISH...perhaps it will help give the manufactures a good idea of what we really want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kirumamoru Posted July 13, 2005 Members Share Posted July 13, 2005 Summer NAMM will probably be pretty damned boring, especially for us keys people. Maybe one or two little surprises, but I wouldn't expect anything from the major companies. I hope maybe there'll be a "Virus TI Shipping" and an "Alesis Fusion Shipping", but that's about all I espect. Kiru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members urbanscallywag Posted July 13, 2005 Members Share Posted July 13, 2005 On a serious note I hope SE will debut the product we thought they were going to release at Messe. A mono keyboard of sorts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Analog Kid Posted July 13, 2005 Members Share Posted July 13, 2005 an SE with keys would be cool- perhaps overdue? Let's say a 2 voice Omega to compete with the Voyager... you'd get that 4th oscillator plus the 4 filters... that might heat things up in the RA market.

Members gruvjack Posted July 13, 2005 Members Share Posted July 13, 2005 I predict warm weather. Couple of minor formant filters ("oohs" and "ahhhs") and that's it. Nothing major. V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bah, blue LEDs are for CPU overclockers. Blue paint...Clavia doesn't understand the word "blue". And besides, I was talking features, not repackaging.

Members felix Posted July 13, 2005 Members Share Posted July 13, 2005 - Virus TI shipping (please, please, please!) - How about a Jupiter/Juno/TB/TR card for Vsynth? - I'd love to see a VA with Sliders (not knobs), JP9000 would be sweet... - Kurzweil K3000V (plug-in) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members felix Posted July 13, 2005 Members Share Posted July 13, 2005 Originally posted by urbanscallywag Yeah, kind of like standardized MIDI CC numbers...wait a second... Not good enough.

I do think Novation will have to be aggressive to compete with CME--perhaps they will lower their prices on the Remote series? And perhaps Edirol will stop being so cheap and will add aftertouch to their PCR's? One can dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
