Sadly, Chevy, no... some people here work for the companies, represent them or work for dealers. And seem to think that potential customers should NOT question features, ask about potential problems, or expect honest and timely answers. And should be satisfied with any half-baked, ill-informed reply they dole out. Whether they have proved inaccurate in the past or not...

Not that ALL manufacturer connected people here are like that. JUST SOME....

And we all know who they are.

May I dare to ask what pricelevel the 2 items did sell for?
It's amazing that the Norwegian people are willing to pay 50000 NKR
( more than 70000 US$ ) if the "offer price announced at dealer webpages
are correct.
Full price more than 8400 US$!

Wonder if there are any higher prised Audyas around the world? And also,
is it worth it when think about Nedim's story about it's a betaversion
and not even ready to sell?

Hmmmm....

Hei again

It`s important to me to make clear that i am not a dealer or have any connection to Ketron or it`s network. In this case was hired in only to demonstrate the keyboard. It does not matter to me if anyone on the demo buy one or not.

Leezone - i live in Norway. It`s correct that 2 people as preordered the Keyboard and an agreement on price is done.....

Gunnar - i`m sorry, but the price are between the buyer and dealer. Many on the demo asked about the price. I told them to ask the dealer that question. it`s not something i want to get involved in.

Martin

My oh.. my.. oh me! Seven and/or Eight Grand for the "privilege" of owning an Audya?!?!? And I thought 5 Grand was tipping the scale too much. Little did I know, eh?

Well, when you realize that Norway has one of the highest per capita Gross National Income's in the entire World, I reckon Ketron feels they can get away with shafting people more in Norway than they can with those in the U.S.A. huh? I guess they call that being "market savvy" eh?

My sincerest condolences goes out to all you rich people in Norway who have purchased this "seven/eight" thousand dollar unfinished beta tester keyboard. >> If Ketron has the audacity to charge this much for something "still" in the beta testing stage I'm not sure who I blame more - Ketron for the outrageous price gouging, or these innocent rich europeans who cough up cash so readily for something still in beta form??? I mean, if the Europeans are actually happy with their purchase then I suppose it's hard to blame them for being "happy" with the Audya right? So that means the blame lies squarely on Ketron for actually getting away with highway robbery I suppose.

If the world economy is in the tank you would think companies would tend to be a little more "compassionate" to people right? [img]http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/smile.gif[/img] By that I mean, charging "less" for their products to give more of a 'balance' to both manufacturers AND consumers alike - during these difficult economic times. Not so with Ketron apparently... [img]http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/biggrin.gif[/img]

All the best,
Mike

Hello Lee

The songs was for you guys to hear only. Just to point out the autoroll issue. It had almost a 100 hits for just couple of hours so i taught the most of you on this post has heard them. As i said, I`m not working for Ketron. Ketron can make their own demos, or pay me to make them

Maybe i`ll put them up on my website later.
I`ll give you a note if i do.
