New Korg NAMM teaser!!!!!!

[Hollowcell]

I'm at home, so I won't be DLing the vids just yet, but from what you guys are saying it's not sounding too promising. That disapointing?!

Does the video show anything other than PCM stuff?

For 8 grand there must be something to it!!! Surely!

I dunno.... The stuff that was showcased in the video was, shock horror, daytime TV stuff, again. Very disappointing. I actually think this was more to do with the demonstrator's choice of music, though..

The Teknosis demo was very good, though. Tight as anything, too. It obviously shows it's about how you personally use it. If I ever had access to an OASYS (not likely) I'd dump most of the PCM daytime-TV instrumental stuff (if possible) and import my own samples for warping. I think that would be where the OASYS would truly come unto a world of its own. The synthesis possibilities are vast.
The AL-1 analogue board, ... The demonstrator only showed one type of sound, so we didn't get to really hear its potential.

For $8K I was really, really expecting to be blown away. But unfortunately not, by a long shot. $8K could buy you a LOT, elsewhere, and still sound better.

That guy in the video could play the keys though. he was pretty F%^&in good! 8O

for 8 grand you can set up a whole 2nd hand studio.

I agree, dumping the PCM and starting again is what it's about - V-synth is a good example of that. Can't demo the thing with out taking your own samples into the store.

All I know (without reading in detail about the new Oasis) is that if it has the possibilities of the prototype Oasis in the 90s, depending on the user the thing will completely change.

But..........8 fucking grand! 8O Not a chance in my economic position - even if it was amazing.
