I have heard from a source close to Ketron in Italy that there will soon be a 61-note version and a module version, in addition to the OS upgrade for Audya. There will also be a replacement soundboard that will have a slot for additional memory for samples.

BUT, will this 61 version be even less of an arranger than AUDYA is?

or JUST less keys, less weight, less price ?

Musikmesse 2010 will be held in Frankfurt am Main from March 24 to 27, 2010. Looks like
Ketron will be at Hall 5.0 B26. http://musik.messefrankfurt.com/frankfurt/en/exhibitor.details.html/ketron-s-r-l.html

Maybe this is the time and place to present the OS update and other news .... if any?

Jonny,

I think that is the problem, Ketron are not interested in USA or UK it sells peanuts in both Europe is much better for them! Please don't say we have to wait until March 24th now for OS4. I don't think any more than 30 have been sold in the UK and about 3 in USA.

I don't know how many have been sold in the U.S., but I do know the distributor has sold out of inventory and reordered 3 or 4 times, so they certainly went somewhere.
Despite what we might want to think, not every keyboard player knows about Synthzone.

Don,

What does that say about SZ is that good or bad. I still think that Ketron sell well in Europe. I have been to a few Spanish hotels and SD1 are played.

I waited over a year to join because "new registrations were not being accepted." I wonder how many others hit the same wall. It was only after I emailed Nigel that he kindly accepted me.

AJ has one of those dodgy watches the ones you get when you go to Spain or Turkey on holiday, Rolex Perpetua should be £5500., but you can get one for £20.00, after a week the fingers fall off and the date goes slow. 1 on AJ watch could be one year, it might be never, it’s stopped and he does know it. What time is it now AJ? AJ would it not be simpler to just give us the release date, now there's a first, or are the numbers game tips for the lottery!

Regards All you Audya Nuts, well all 3 of you!

Jonny,

This KB and Ketron are not clever enough to provide a master backup that clears everthing off and then put everything back on right up to date. If Ketron keep going with updates we will run out of disk space before long and a master backup will take 4 days to load, this is only a joke a bit like AJ countdown but part of the statement is right!

Cheers Jonny is it still snowing where you are, please don't send anymore to the UK we are not experts at it!

Ketron do have a set of restore DVD's for the Audya. You have to format the Audya's hard drive (the Audya has a format command from OS2) and reload from the DVD.

If you had read the post through you would see it wasn't about that Tony.

Hi TWD
Would be nice to have those DVD's just in case, do you know where to get them? Never heard about the DVD's before.
Waiting for a new soundboard for my Audya, sure takes a long time to get it, have been waiting for months. Getting a little frustrated these days, my weekend gig was not the best one cause of this faulty sound board.
Thanks

Yes TWD this is news to me I didn't know there was Master DVD and why should I, I only bought and Audya not the company, TWD does this DVD take you right up from a formated drive to OS3.Oa Does Darren at Ketron UK know his site doesn't say that he say load them all back on one at a time!!

There is very little use for the DVD restore set unless you seriously mess up your hard disk or have a HDD accident. It takes you to OS2.0 and you reload all OS updates after that, I think it has to be that way to make sure the Audya's hardware is in sync with the OS. I presume (but not certain) that part of the update involves some bios or flash memory alterations.

I keep a complete backup on my laptop (which goes everywhere with me) so don't need the restore DVD's. I think this is the best option, then if you do delete something by accident you can just copy the file across.

TWD,

Thanks for that and the one on the other SZ site. I am in PC myself for a day job and started programming "C" and others when dos 1.25 was built. I don't have a problem with loading anything on, its others who bought Audya and now find they need to get a friend in to load updates. I know a few people who bought the KB who were not told the truth about updates and I was told that Audya was the best "KB IN THE WORLD EVER" the shape of things to come, I have a Korg PA2x and I am an engineer and Audya is not what it is made out to be and TWD if you have one you must agree it's not worth twice the cost of the PA2x. My gripe is waiting for an update that yet again will be the best thing since sliced bread, blow your socks off, these are the statements being made, but where is it, it should have been in the KB when I got it, then the original statement would have been true. Ketron have had 18 months and 3 upgrades and it's no better than any other KB, just a lot more money. If Audya had been a car it would have had wings and a propeller!

Thanks TWD

BTW TWD I have had another problem about a week back I was playing with some WAV and Loops and the LCD screen when blank, the KB still played, I tired everything to get the sceen back on and the only way was to reboot! There are still Software bugs in there that have not surfaced yet for you all. KB will in the end be controlled by windows it's a well tried and tested product, it has problems but when it trips up it can sort itself out. Window has been tested by millions and is about £80.00 to buy it will be a way forward one day. Its used to load your Audya OS4 on when it comes and you cannot do without it.

Watch this and you will see what I mean all you need is a simple midi KB £300.00 one that going down the tip.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-4ycaFUUgI

BTW on this one you need to love the Wurlitzer

Having a good knowledge of computers doesn't mean you don't make mistakes Tony and you missed the point completely of the UK forum post. Its very simple:

Are you 100% sure you loaded OS 2.0, Styles, 2.0c then 3.0 in that order? Yay or Nay?

Are you 100% sure you loaded OS 2.0, Styles, 2.0c then 3.0 in that order? Yay or Nay?



TWD,

People think my Audya still locks up, it doesn't and have have loaded all the updates on correctly, this is my second KB and the first one locked up for fun, update by the dealer several times, my first KB was then sold on to someone in Kent and he had to send it back to my dealer, OS3a was loaded on to that KB again and eventually it worked OK. I have a new problem that has happened a few times when the screen goes blank. My main gripe is what everybody should be complaining about, that is the AUDYA was not a finsished product, this is now known to all mankind, if you are happy with yours then OK but I have been told that OS4 will blow you away, if I am not paying for updates then that means it was not finished when I bought it, as it will be, I have had to wait until such time as Ketron add all the bits I have paid for, if that is not the case they I would be been charging for updates. Am I missing something or am I talk tosh! With regard to the software when I write a full backup it means a full back up right up to the last line of code written today, not updates on update in the correct order or your dead, that's playing with software and I know what there problem is doing this!

Cheers Tony

I believe you 'mentally' need to seperate new features from bug fixes.

Let me give you an example. If you work with computers you will know that the IBM T20 was regarded as one of the most reliable and well built laptops ever made, and IBM's online support system is the benchmark to which all other computer manufacturers aim for. They were rock solid PC's and I have customers that still run them everyday with XP SP3.

Have a look at the list of Bios updates:

1.02 IYET36WW
1.03 IYET37WW
1.06 IYET42WW
1.07 IYET43WW
1.08 IYET45WW
1.09 IYET46WW
1.10 IYET49WW
1.11 IYET50WW
1.12 IYET52WW
1.13 IYET53WW
1.14 IYET54WW
1.16 IYET56WW
1.17 IYET57WW
1.18 IYET57WW
1.19 IYET58WW
1.20 IYET59WW
1.21 IYET60WW
1.22 IYET61WW

Apart from the odd feature, almost all of these were to sort out bugs.

Ketron could just given us boring fixes like this just to sort out the odd bug here and there, but instead they choose to give us a new GUI, a load of extra styles and who knows what else in OS4. All things that were not on the keyboard we paid for and had they never released them we would never have complained about them.

WOW! I really was in impression that your Audya still stood up against the wall,
and PA2X Pro was the King on the kbstand as we could see in a picture some time
ago.
Good to hear that it works again, can't remember see you mentioned that in any
post?

Happy Playing

Just shows even the best manufacturers have problems that require bug fixing. you can google anything crashing if you like:

mac crashing

Do you get my point though? They are obligated to sort out bugs; upgrades are not obligatory.


TWD

I just thought of another illustration whilst sitting on my throne

You said you have been working with computer programs for years...you might understand this.

Lets say you were software designer in a specialist field and are contracted to design a piece of software for a specific application. You negotiate a fixed sum.

You worked at it for months, running different scenarios and found it to be ok. However once deployed and working in the real world the company found your software would crash in certain situations or behave in ways you had not anticipated.

You might be obliged under contract to sort those errors out without charge, and if you were not obliged in your contract you may choose to do so to keep your reputation.

Whilst your working on the bugs you realise the company are using your software in ways you had not expected and that it would be much easier if they had a revised GUI, with more visable on screen controls to monitor events. At the same time they say it would be nice if they had ths or that function. So you decide to add a few other features in there to help make life easier for them.

The company have already paid you well for your work so you might decide to add the upgraded features free of charge along with your Bug fixes.

Or...you could just install the bug fixes and try and sell them the updates at a later date.

Which would your customer appreciate most do you think?

its just an illustration, the brief doesn't matter - don't read too much into it.

I was trying (and not very well) to make the point that companies like IBM/Lenovo, Mac (yes even they have firmware revisions) Yamaha, Ketron, Hammond..whoever..are not obligated to give us free stuff or updates, but they should be obligated to sort out major bugs.

TWD,

Tell me I am not wrong, you appear to be saying the Ketron need not do anything any more with Audya, other than bugs, thats it, no free upgrades. If you where even half right I would not be a bit surprised at Ketron. From threads I have read on SZ it's a trait that Ketron are experts at. If there are no free upgrades, someone down the Ketron supply chain owe me around £2000.00 that the shortfall Auyda -v- PA2x.

I do hope you are wrong Ketron, will need good lawyers!

Tada..youve got it

I am not saying Ketron (or any other manufacturer) won't give you free feature upgrades, what I am saying is that I do not believe they are obliged to do so. However if there are serious bugs they, or any manufacturer should certainly endeavor to sort them out.

A buddy of mine use to work for Ketron and still keeps intouch with them. I asked about a module and the reply I got was. If and when they decide to release a module, it will not be anytime soon.

Besides if they were to release an Audya module, it would only be a couple of hundred dollars less than the keyboard.

How did you manage that, you said some time back you asked Ketron to beta test and they refused you, this sounds like the real thing for release next week hey! Go for it Frank, hope it's OK

Your wrong Leezone, there are that many new sounds, styles and features he hasn't got round them all yet, it will be sometime after Messe when Franks done.

I asked Sandro Fontanella Ketron of Italy to provide the operating system V4.0 beta testing for all users who want to try this OS.
Could have much more information and advance more quickly, but your response is still awaited!

Tony,

when you say new sounds, you mean "tweaked" sounds, eq'd etc?

or you mean NEW waveforms, for TOTALLY brand new sounds,


i doubt Frank is still auditioning new stuff,

i BET he's troubleshooting the crap out of OS4

I was going to say what you just did but thought better of it, but you will be right and Franks not going to say anything real bad about it, I think he is a sound sort of chap.

Drumremix,

That wouldn’t work, there would be so many bollocks in there even Ketron would be embarrassed to release it. You instinctively know when something is not going to be right and you instinctively know it’s not going to be right first time with Ketron and that includes updates. You will see, if OS4 is OK now then it will be released to us after Messe, there is no reason why not, if there are still problems with OS4 then Ketron can still hold back releasing it way after Messe, maybe June or July or even November, hey what you say! The the fact that Frank has now got a copy some 5 months after OS4 beta testing started is a little concerning, maybe it's Ketrons new "customer care comes first", maybe they have started to read SZ??
