Members Metrosonus Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 they may be playing on the word, but it also may be worth waiting and seeing. out of all the major manufacturers i consider korg the most innovative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members flat earth Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 ..maybe, but with the current economic climate, as much as I'd like to see something like a Wavestation 2, Im being realistic in saying, alas, its probably not gonna happen at the moment. ..but we can of course hope!

Members seamonkey Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 As we've recently seen with the Roland dramatic fanfare announcement of an announcement of new product/products on such and such date, this type of hype of a new product is counter-productive. All it does is create rumors and speculation on what it will be, and when the official announcement is released people are let down because it's not x, y or z. For cripes sake, just make the announcement.:poke:, word of mouth on sites like this and ads will do more than this secret unveiling of Al Capone's vault crap.

If it were done right, manufacturers would ask what's wanted from people on forums like this. They'd get mostly unrealistic, costly, fantasy ideas, but even if a consensus isn't reached, they wouldn't put out crap that no one wants. There's also the issue that a lot of people will say they want something, but change their mind when it comes down to opening their wallet.

Members Metrosonus Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 well, that's the thing, they sell, what well, sells. and it's mostly keyboards, guitar, drums and performance related equipment. what would be ideal is if one of these companies started a small consumer research division that addressed these prosumer issues. there's an entire new area of computer based studios that is largely unexplored except for envisioning and trying to shoehorn it with yesterdays technology. that's the new frontier to me. IMHO soft synths and what aren't the answer. they are fun, but no where near the quality and versatility of workstations like the fantom, m3, viruseses ect.

Members McHale Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 Well, it's probably not a workstation. The M50 is still new and they extended the promotion for the M3. New synth? Maybe. KP3 replacement? Maybe? What haven't they released in a long time (or ever)? Maybe a competitor to the V-Accordian ?!?! Boy I hope so! :poke: But personally, I think countdowns are stupid and usually huge letdowns. Just release the info already. Countdowns don't generate hype... it's not the 50's anymore. There are other things on the internet I'll find interesting and by the time the countdown comes around, I'll have forgotten and moved on. Most people's attention spans are very small now... -Mc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Citizen Klaus Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 Well, it's probably not a workstation. The M50 is still new and they extended the promotion for the M3. It better not be a workstation -- I just bought an M3. Maybe they're finally updating the Korg Legacy Collection to work properly in 64-bit operating systems. An x64-compatible Wavestation would, after all, be a "New Wave". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
