Dave Bryce Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I'm going to the Musik Messe in Frankfurt this week. One of the things I'll be doing there is shooting videos for Keyboard mag at the booths. Anybody have anything they want me to go check out? Can't promise I'll get to everything, but I'll do my best. dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEB Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Kawai, the new stage pianos. Roland FA-06. You reviewed the 08 but I want your opinion on the 06 action. Yamaha, if they by some miracle introduce a new S90. But that won't happen. "It doesn't have to be difficult to be cool" - Mitch Towne "A great musician can bring tears to your eyes!!!

Kawai James Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I'm going to the Musik Messe in Frankfurt this week. One of the things I'll be doing there is shooting videos for Keyboard mag at the booths. Awesome! Nord please. I don't think they'll be showing any new (i.e. not previously announced at NAMM) gear, but it's always good to see and hear the guys there. Have fun!

Six-string-man Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Would be great if you could do something on the new Ventilator, if Neo Instruments should happen to show up. Thanks for asking.

Lead A1/R rack version I swear, I double-checked the Nord site before posting that! It's a little predictable, but new gear is new gear. Certainly rack fans will be happy.

Dana. Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Lead A1/R rack version ADDED FEATURES SINCE NAMM JANUARY 2014 Like button NEW! Unique to the Nord Lead A1 is the new 'Like' function, a simple and brilliant practical feature to use during patch creation. When programming a patch it's often not clear if it's yet perfect. Now with the Lead A1 you can simply 'Like' what you've done into a temporary location and continue editing. You can Like up to 50 variations, with the ability to scroll between them to compare your favourites or go back to a specific Liked version to edit in a different way. When you're ready, save your favourite patch or patches to the Lead A1's memory. Mutator Function NEW! A popular feature of the Lead 4, the Mutator function allows variations of a patch to be created by adjusting one, some, or all elements of a patch by set percentages. There's also a wild Randomize mode to create an entirely new patch with all parameters randomized. Unison NEW! A newly designed "Fat-As-Fat-Can-Be" Unison Mode let's the Lead A1 challenge any vintage analog instrument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana. Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Now, how about that Nord Piano rack? +1 There's no reason why Nord shouldn't be making this. Or at least an Electro 4 Rack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't promise I'll get to everything, but I'll do my best. dB Yamaha has a Musikmesse 2014 Special Site for new Yamaha products to be announced at the show. Hmmmm...I wonder what Yamaha has up its sleeve. Maybe a new synth or a next gen MOTIF with some trickle down from the Tyros 5 (e.g. S.Art2 Voices/high-quality sounds that re-create the feeling of an actual instrument when performing or maybe Yamaha's Time Stretch audio technology)? dB, I'm sure you'll stop by to peak at those yammy sleeves...on or before March 12. http://europe.yamaha.com/en/products/musical-instruments/musikmesse/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Bryce Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 Physis is already on my list.

burningbusch Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Well I guess you'd better check out the Akai Rhythm Wolf.

Synthoid Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 There was a rumor on another forum (not HC) that Casio was bringing out a new synth @ Messe. Guess that didn't happen.

Tusker Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Whatever updates Moog has on the Sub 37, as well as the Matador, please! +1 to both of these, please. I wonder what the build quality of the Sub 37 is, and what the new keybed (with aftertouch) is like? The Sub Phatty had a uniformly well regarded keybed and build quality, while the earlier Slim Phatty received mixed reviews ... Thanks for any info Dave.
