Only the price will tell....$5000.00 is a big chunk for people in these hard economic times especially when there is so much competition.if Ketron is smart they will get these out asap at around $3200.00 and move on to the next idea.....

US $5000 is low price compared to what we see at dealers websites here, looks like a real bargain!

I think that you cannot separate out the drums on audio loops (as it is just a mixed audio file) but you can on the MIDI kits...

Hey Diki.
I know, but the audioloops are mostly useless anyway. The upside is - the SD1 patterns sounds amazing on the Audya.

The problem lies in that people will compare it to what is already out there for the $5000.00...here lies the problem...is the Audya that much better then the other TOTL arranger kb's out there at this time?

Huh...? Are you talking about the 'Real Drums' styles?

I thought that these were the main difference between Ketron and the rest.

The problem is that the loop repets itselfs over and over. Ok? So....there comes the auto roll....in the middle of the verse. Very annoying. Sounds like the drummer is drunk and has his mind somewhere else.

Auto roll? Do you mean that there are fills at the end of each loop even when you don't want one? How long are the loops? 8 bar, 4 bar, 16 bar?

That sounds a little odd. Have you checked with Ketron to see if there is something set wrong in your Preferences?

I think the Audya justifies 5000$ very well, as far as doing more or having more then the
competitors well hell yeah, has over 10 things that the competitors cant do, it still justifies.

Hm, let me try to give u an example. You know the 12 bar blues? Ok. When you play the play the blues pattern and keep strikly to the 12 bar blues scheme , whooooow it`s wonderfull, but...sometimes you have to leave the standard 12 bar blues scheme.....catastrophe. Does this make sense? My english is not so strong
