And Im an FX Freak.

...

But Ray Kurzweil changed all of our lives for the better.

 

Yep, the FX in a PC3 series or Forte are really good.

At least you recognize when diving into the editing experience and create your own FX chains for your programs and performances.

When it comes to "Insert FX Chains", these keyboards are the most flexible ones, and Forte doubles DSP power for FX vs PC3.

 

I showed my son who he was and now he wants a Forte.. Hes only 11, I fucked up good because he wont take a Yamaha PSR now. Wish I had a Forte when I was 11...

 

:cool::laugh:

Rumor has it from someone in a Facebook group that they have seen a Krome EX. Person says that its the same look but in a grayish shiny color, does not have faders, has roughly the same number of sounds, and the piano is way better when compared to the Krome sitting next to it. Supposed to be revealed this month. NDA with someone otherwise.

 

 

Interested to say the least.

Then I would add to your maxim, Greg:

Innovation is never a single event. It is a long process of discovery, engineering, interaction and transformation.

 

Not to digress to much...

 

The book Where Good Ideas Come From by Steven Johnson puts it in this way. Both evolution and innovation tend to happen within the bounds of the adjacent possible, in other words the realm of possibilities available at any given moment. So it's a long process of discoveries, which step only possible with the choices presented from the previous one.

Sounds plausible, but I'm not sure reviving the EX designation is a good idea. It's very 2002, somehow.

 

I do hope they'll give it a better action; it's the one thing I really dislike about mine. But I'll probably get one either way.

Stage 2 EX was more recent. I think it adds to the confusion, though that may be the point. :idk

 

 

Edit: Post is gone now. I forgot to mention that this new Krome is apparently Version 2.0. Not sure what they mean by that unless it has something to do with updated midi standards?

Korg can't make a synth keybed worth a second note. They should just crawl back to Yamaha for decent keys.
