I logged on just to say what Al said.
Amen! Ditto! etc.

Through the camera's internal mic, it doesn't sound too good and it is probably a lot better than that.
Also a commentary would be nice

It's certainly a very cool looking (and well lit) keyboard. All you need is a flight wheel and you're sitting behind the seat of a 747. Seriously it's like a 747 dash board with keys

I think the board looks great. Features are impressive too. However like others stated, the sound quality of the video was quite poor.

This may be a great Keyboard, but you could never tell from this Demo. After 13
min I had to turn it off. All I learned from
the Demo is that the Board can count to 4.
I have seen Horses ans Dogs do the same thing. Kidding aside this Demo does nothing
about informing us of the features of this
Keyboard.

I watched the Video myself .....although a very interesting concept of which I always embrace new technology with an open mind.
In the right application it could possibly do marvelous things........Small companies cannot compete with the big boyz but that dosnt mean they are not efficient. Like anything else it needs to be experienced buy the User/customer themself versus maybe a somewhat premature demo.......things are changing fast in the Music Scene & this KB is part of it with many inovative features that at this time are not mainstream......
I await more prgress from Liontracks in the future for sure.

After listening some demo's om the liontracks site i have one conclusion,it sounds like an old casio keyboard, the newer sound much better.
I am sorry, just my opinion

Arno,

MIDIROEL,
considering what Arno wrote above about the sound, check this out:
http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum37/HTML/010918-2.html

go to page 2

it is an older discussion, in which you also took part...I recommended some simple things on the second page back then, 5 months have passed, and still you are trying to showcase the sound of a high end keyboard through what seems to be the built-in camera microphone.

Imagine trying to convince someone to give you a good job, and going to the interview with stained clothes, unbathed and with a 3 day stubble. You will not have a chance.

Ever seen a dirty Alfa Romeo in a display? They shine them every day. Guess why.

Get a pair of RCA cables for God's sake.

MIDIROEL, aka D........

I watched this video till the end. I thought the instrument played OK. I could not figure out what it was playing - seemed like it could only play MIDI files, with some right-hand sounds over top (not the styles).

However, I want to give Mediastation the benefit of the doubt. When will there be one of these instruments at my local dealer?

If you are not planning to have a wide dealers's network, I will agree to try one for, say, 30 days, with no questions asked return and postage paid both ways.

This way I could evaluate the real capabilities of this instrument not by the way it sounds in a cheezy video, but by trying out tis actual features.

Regards,
Alex
