how many new voices/styles are we talking about?
half dozen?

all i remember from videos, was
a tweaked breathier sax,
a tweaked piano
a tweaked rhodes
a tweaked or new pad sound

4 sounds is what i heard,
is this why they call it OS4 :-)

to me they just added "noise" to the sounds
"noise" meaning breaths, key hits, etc.

and as far as styles, i heard an 8 beat i believe

can we know how many NEW voices/styles and what they are,

and are they NEW, by means of tweaking old?
or TOTALLY NEW waveforms?

Tony?, AJ? Frank? Don?

It a bit like the lottery Leezone, "You need to be in it to win it" buy one see, dip you hand in that bottomless pocket and go for it Leezone.

Joe,

You will be OK, it’s all a load of old bollocks, bad translation between Italian and Turkish the mind boggles think about it, English to Italian is bad enough.

Tony,

I want that Ketron deliver on the OS4+New Voices+additional styles, but the way that they are doing it scare people from the product.

In then specification for Audya4 we can read:

Real Audio Arranger:
570 styles, User Audio Drum, over 370 Real Audio Drums Sequences, Acoustic and Electric Live Guitar, User Live Guitar, Arranger ABCD, 3 Intro/ending, 4 Fill ins, 4 Breaks, Bassist and Pianist, Audio Style Modeling.

Sound Generation:
Functions:
Bank Libraries:
Module Control:
430 New Presets with Stereo and multi-layer Voices, 512 GM2 sounds, 32 parts Multitimbral, Voice Character Emulation (VCE), Left Voices, Dsp Effects: 2nd Voice.

Programs: 320 Programs, 3 Voices layered, 3 Splits


That is what the people are expecting.

Is what I expect before a purchase any Audya.

Technically Audya has got OS4, at least that's what it reads on my startup screen We are only missing the new sounds - so okay maybe its just half an OS4 actually .
But I heard through the grapevine that due to the economical crisis, Ketron decided to copy the package to some spare floppy disks they had lying around – the size was apparently so huge that it took up app. 1000 discs! These have already been shipped overseas by carrier pigeons. Unfortunately some weird dust cloud coming in from Iceland sidetracked the pigeons – so who knows when to expect them?

Cheers and good luck.

Tony,
No, i am not son of diki...I am just an Audya owner.. i had sd1 that i've used 7 years..i have ketron 1400 pa system..i mean i am not againist to Ketron...

I have really good relationship with Ketron Turkey..this is the reason that i can get some news (maybe secrets) from Ketron like this:

http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum37/HTML/020777.html

Ok..i have an audya and i was wondering about the new voices and styles..and i made a phone call to Istanbul to Ketron Turkey..They said that;
"Necdet,we called to Italy and Italy said;there are no new voices and styles for audya...that's it...just i'd like to share with ketroners...

to be honest there are some new ins sounds (drum kits) for orieantal/ethnic music from Ketron Turkey and i got them...

Ok this is the story..short and clean...and finally as i wrote;i hope i am wrong...
regards...... Necdet
