Al salam Aleikum dear arabic musicians.

I think the ketron x1 oriental showed in the namm is the same x1 but with joystick pitch bender and is written on the keyboard cover oriental. for the oriental program I think is the same old one distributed by ketron and nothing is new.

I have this old program that you have but it is nothing compared to the new oriental program. I have heard a demo of it and I tell you it has the most perfect and realistic arabic styles I have heard. the sounds are incredibly real. according to eddy (he is the responsible person for the old and new oriental program)the new oriental program will be demonstrated in the frankfurt messe and after frankfurt he will sell it in lebanon.

I knew from a friend of mine that work with eddy that this program will not be given to ketron and eddy will distribute it by himself because it costed him a lot of money and soon he will make a web site where he will put demos for this program and musicians can order it over the web.

I will get some new info on monday because I will visit the guys at music planet and I will post it here directly.
