Well now is the time for Ketron to tell us about all the other fantastic features that the keyboard has. The audio loop thing was the only standout feature that i was aware of and it turns out that it is much more limited than i first believed. so what else makes the Ketron a great Keyboard ?

Anyone ?

Hi Nedim,
hopefully the software that was mentioned in one of the threads will help.

Starting to sound like style creation on the Audya is even less user friendly than on my sd1+

best wishes

Instead of charging 5$ per style we'll have to charge 20$?
And guess why, you already know, it creates 4 times mote the job
then a regular style...
If i use Factory loop for something, then what and how the hell
am i gonna create CVs for
other chords??? And i have to browse thruout all of the sound samples
to find the right Patch to
change the existing loop
in a complex chord? This is getting funny with Audya.

Hi Spalding,
Ive only got the SD1+, the Live Drums do stand out on a Ketron.

With the right drum audio loops, I think something could be done on the PA800/2X as well with the Groove function.( optimism haahaa)

No you are right rikkisbears. The Korg can sample and accept drum loops and chop them up and enable the user to not only use commercially available loops but also create your own drum kits. There must be more to the Audya than what has been promoted so far. If not ythen Ketron took a HUGE gamble on marketing the instrument purely on its ability to play limited audio loops. I reckon there is more info to come . There has to be......

Well i worked on 2 Ketron Models for the company itself but
they were both based on SD5, then i used the other machines too
for personal use...wasnt impressed much by the way styles are
created and nothing is compatible with NOTHING.
They have good Built and good Sounds, probably the best but their OS
was written by Hitler's scientists i guess.
The synths even feel and look like tanks.

Let's hope that regular (or at least ONE more....) firmware upgrades to both the OS and Sounds are forthcoming....

Maybe that was the plan all along?

I'm not writing this keyboard off yet.
(But yes, screw THAT price...lol)
