and the secrecy continues...

OS 2.0 is not available yet, it will be soon, besides styles and whatever else brings new
features, the long awaited PATTERN EDITOR or Style Creater in our language is coming with 2.0.

will 2.0 allow us to use Drum1 with Audio Loops (wav)

as it is now we can only use midi drums for Drum1

AJ please elaborate on this...

As far as that goes that will stay like that forever, kinda Ketron standard on any arranger
till now, Drum1 MIDI and Drum2 Loops.

Nedim. I don't think you're right on that one. I heard and some are expecting that the ketron PC software to make it possible for audio on drum1. But I too could be wrong

Nedim,

it seems that with the AUDYA, Drum1 can be used with Audio Loops but we need Ketron's software.

AJ, please do confirm and elaborate on this as i don't want to start speculating....

With AUDYA for now you need software (non existent yet) to do everything:
Styles, Loops, Sampling...

2.0 focuses on ...
* Better display layout. You can now control (from the screen) almost instantly features, like song playing, loading registrations ... etc while maintaining control/view of the current status of the machine.
* Styles have been revised further - smoother transition between Arranger and Fill especially with links now included with audio parts of style.
* Better balance and mixing of voices.
* Audio Drums assignable to Drum 1 - In style VIEW, press F1 (DRUM1) and you can toggle between AUDIO and MIDI Drums. Styles with Audio drums now have midi equivalent for those who want to record the midi parts onto software.
* Some fine tune-ups making the OS more stable when playing audio, midifiles, styles ... etc together. CPU now handles all parts playing at the same time (no reason for this in a live situation but we got it covered anyway).

Nedim, Nedim

you have to keep up with the AUDYA,
as you see Drum1 will be able to have AUDIO Drums...

once again i was right ;-)

imagine how LIVE the AUDYA will now sound with OS 2.0 with not 1 Audio Drum Track, BUT 2 Audio Drum tracks...

it just keeps getting better and better...

AJ, i assume some style tweaking in 2.0 now takes advantage of this "extra" Audio Drum track?

also, any new styles in 2.0? any new sounds?
