whats the big deal .....just listen to any AUDYA they are al the same.

no, not the same

the AUDYA 5, supposedly comes with the new sounds, new loops, and new styles,

the AUDYA does not currently have them

it's like saying the dimensions are the same for these two

My Dealer in Aus has just contacted me Anouncement Ketron Iminent re pen drives with the new updated Styles and Sounds lets hope b4 they all go on leave August (I mean this year as well, not 2011)

more info posted on FC's website...

good thing i'm Portuguese :eek

Audya 5: 3,749.00 EUR = 4,883.11 USD

So much for the assumption that an Audya 5 was going to be cheaper than a Tyros3 huh?

My original estimate from information I gathered on the internet led me to conclude the Audya 5 was going to be roughly $600.00 cheaper than a Tyros3. Not so, at least not in Portugal anyway. Frank's price was listed in Euros too apparently. Oh well, leave it to Ketron to charge an arm an leg for a keyboard that is in a perpetual "beta" phase right? Well, the Audya anyway. Hopefully Ketron will fare better with its Audya 4 and 5 products. I guess we'll have to wait until one of our rich Synthzone members e.g. Fran or DonM (or an oil barron from Saudi Arabia) gets one or the other and then posts something afterward telling us of the horrors they've experienced with their new Ketron product(s)... similar to what they have already experienced with the 76 key Audya eh? God forbid, but stranger things have happened don't you know. Like people forking over upwards of 5 Grand in the first place for a roughly thousand dollar piece of equipment. Now that's STRANGE!

All the best,
Mike

Well if i had a wife i'd probably get an Audya too...i mean to sell the wife first.

Sound like you care more about the price vs the sound and features of the unit.

Hi Mike
You cannot do a straight conversion; you first have to remove the 19% VAT (Which is the average rate in Europe) then convert to US Dollars and then add the US Sales Tax.

It wont be over 4000$ in the USA and i know that for a fact.
