Musikmesse, April 6,

- we'll see what bugs they have fixed
- we'll see what new & innovative updates they have
- we'll see how much they care about their products and how much they care about their customers
- we'll see if this silence is actually due to there being nothing new, or perhaps because they are gonna WOW us all

we'll see what Ketron Brings for us DESERVING AUDYA owners

as far as I see it, this is it,
either something BIG is to happen NOW, or NEVER

how many times have they "showcased" this same great AUDYA, ?
or how many years?

i really hope there is something worth talking about, something so we can ALL be happy once and for all.

is that too much to ask?
BTW, i love my AUDYA, even if the audio loop timings are not perfect

Imagine an Ipad as the interface for MIDIJAY. Now throw in all the Arranger features plus easier to use and did I forget the 'touch screen'?

* Way thinner and ligher than the Midijay
* Way more features and very fast processing
* Incoorporating Audio Drums, Bass, Guitar and ...

WHAT DO YOU HAVE?

The new >>>>>

personally I do not like touch screens at all on anything other than toys or PDA's. I love the sliders on the Audya and the tactile switches for arranger parts fills, etc. I would hate to lose those in favour of consumer pressure to have 'the latest'. Some things are better left alone - particularly if its control features.

As screens continue to decrease in price its only a matter of time before we lose hardware controls (which are expensive to manufacture and assemble)...but I am not looking forward to it that day.

The AUDYA 4 will be around for a while so hold on to what you have as there is no replacement for this ... just updates!

As for this 'new' product ... just wait and see ...

I think TWD is right, fly by wire can be dangerous when the comms goes, your gone, touch screens make changing things very easy and you can upgrade for years with a touch screen, I don't think it will be long before we do go down this route
