AJ, or someone else can you corfirmed that the release date in Denmark is 28.April or what date can we count on

Best to contact Ketron Italy, as the Audya has been out in the UK and Mainland Europe for some time now.

Regards

Bill

twiceduo,

it has already been released in DK, has been for around two weeks. They have one at JG Musik in Ringe, and another one somewhere in northern Jutland.
However they have not shipped more than those two machines yet. I ordered mine two weeks ago and have not heard anything further. Hopefully it will be just around the corner.

I thought that Denmark WAS mainland Europe?

Mr.Sound in Brooklyn NY says they will get their AUDYA next week

They moved it recently, its more towards USA now.

Once the Audya comes in, I will have on display "

Tyros 3
Pa2xpro
Mediastation
Audya

Come down and take them for a spin

There are in around 10 stk in Denmark but only for demostration, not for sale, I ve try it yesterday, and want one but I cant get it before 3 -4 weeks they say.

Great birthday present!!! See you soon

So something isn't rotten in the State of Denmark after all?

WOW, Frank ... all I got for mine (the 16th) was an outdoor reclining lounge chair !!! ...

Steve ... maybe we can make that trip to Frankie's together ...
t.

What price USA???

No nothing's rotten here. I think you have been misinformed on that one. That Shakespeare guy is full of s.... haha

I spoke with Ted at CMC yesterday, the distributor of Ketron products in the USA and he told me that a small shippment would be arriving on the 27th and that he was not going to know what the price is for a couple of more days. I think he is still working on what will be considered a competive price for the US market considering the price of Korg and Yamaha top of the line products and what the Audya brings to the table in new technology and features.

I just thought that Audya Fans and prospective fans might like to know that I am at the Pakefield Keyboard festival in UK that lasts one week. Audya is on show here and I digitally recorded a full demonstration by Robert Messier (from Canada)Apparently he is a style maker for Ketron Audya. He is only here for one day but the Ketron sales team are here for the week. Are there any questions that I could put to these people? I must admit that I am impressed with this machine. I own a Tyros2 at the moment. I usually lurk on synthzone but due to the nature of this site rarely post. The team have asked for a copy of my recording and I will give them one if they provide a usb stick. Maybe I can try and upload the recordings to 4share or something. Anyway that is another days problem just thought I would give you the info.
Cheers

We look forward to watching your recording...

Hi Carol

Don’t forget to meet up with Graham UK and Chalky UK as they are both SZ members who are also at Pakefield. (You will probably find others as well)

Regards

Bill

What does that mean?

Tony, By the looks of my schedule may not be able to make that trip until possibly early June. I'll be in touch.

Maybe he's fed up of being told that only practice will make you better, by the guy that goes through more different arrangers than the rest of the forum put together...?

Or maybe he already knows the Cha-cha?

The price for an Audya coming in next week to CMC is Retail $6999.00 and MAP price (minimum advertised) is $4999.00. I was told that the shipment coming is extremely small and that I won't be able to even get one until perhaps July..........I was also told that the price will most likely come down some because of the dollar getting stronger in Europe. I am very disappointed that after all this time of waiting, there is still no product to be shipped out here in California.
To all those in my area interested in getting your hands on one or just hearing one, I have decided to postpone having an AJ "road show" here until there is product able to be purchased. I have always run my store this way. It only frustrates customers when they've seen it but they can't buy it! I've never been one who takes advanced orders because sometimes you get a deposit and then you can't deliver for a very long time and you end up with enemies!
And the wait continues!

Steve ... that would fit my schedule too ...

Well $5kUS ain't to bad, Aussie $'s would make it say $7k, but what the hell is going on with the shipments, and why is it taking so long?? I'm with you George, dont sell what you aint got in stock. Its fraught with danger for both Sales and consumers. So come on Ketron move em in and quickly please, including Australia

$5k ain't too bad?

That's nearly $2k MORE than a T3 (discount price), PA2Xpro, E80, etc..

Wrong product at the wrong time, IMO... I can only hope it doesn't take Ketron down with it. Maybe, just maybe, if the world economy hadn't collapsed, it might have been popular. But now? Somehow, I just don't see it.

The faster they churn out a trickle down MOTL model, the better...
