Chris, I am excited about your new Code61.... I know it is a great controller...
Why no one else has commented on your excitement... who knows..
They talk for weeks over a nothing picture of the Yamaha offering, but show no interest in the Code61..
Our Code61 allow us to play far superior sounds (VST) than we have in our keyboards.. yet still no interest..
As for the software updates... your fresh new Code61 was already in the delivery system when the new firmware were released (Sept8, 2017)..
The new release was to optimize the Code to the VIP 3.0 software..
BTW: you will also need to update the Code61 editor, the old version will not work with the new firmware..
I updated both on my Code61..
I am sorry, but the Kronos is every bit as much a vst controller as the m-audio... i have 9 programmable sliders, 8 programmable knobs, 16 programmable buttons... i can assign them to external midi sources with 1 push of the ext button...
I can save 100 profiles for this external session.. and assign a profile to any combi ...
In general my main profile assigns 8 buttons to the pa4x for arranger features... and sliders, knobs, and 8 more buttons to mainstage ... or reason... still preferring reason... i will be considering vip, need to get my hands on a trial first before spending €100...
So you dont need a full featured master keyboard to comtroll vst’s... any keyboard with master key compatibillities ( like rolands rd2000, montage, and even the upcomming Genos will be great for comtrolling vst’s)
I do agree they are im a different price range, but they also have to offer a huge amount of features outside of the master keyboard features... and there is one thing these offer, not available in the master keyboards... these all function as an audio imterface for your pc...
I think having a full workstation with vst’s on top is my preferred choice...
