eric Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 I just deciphered it and learned that they have included the entire soundset from the Yamaha DX1 and also a CS80 emulation as well. It is hard to see in the photo, but there is supposed to be a little flip up panel with access to the controls for the CS80. Looks like a winner!

mildbill Posted November 5, 2005 Author Share Posted November 5, 2005 awesome! what do you think it will go for? about 268,234,296,234,085,689 yen? looks like the japanese use watts, too - about 25 of them. seems to be about 32 voice polyphony, and something is 10. any chance it could be the new replacement for the P60? maybe they should have called it the Mo70?

Cool. And you can pitch bend with the sustain pedal no doubt. Hey, I have an AN1X. You never know what combination of DSP and interface Yamaha is going to come up with. Didn't someone (was it Yamaha) buy Arturia? With the Minimax software=>hardware trend, any thing could happen. Is it too much to hope for a digi-weight CS80 clone with poly aftertouch and a ribbon controller. Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverDragonSoun Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I wonder why there is still only 32 poly? Does it cost much more to bump up to 64? Begin the day with a friendly voice A companion, unobtrusive - Rush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeke Smith. Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 From the above, and even more like a Roland user manual: Weight 13kg. Light weight conversion was actualized. -> Furthermore the charm of such plus something * To the one which we would like to touch the real thing of the P-70 We introduce the Yamaha chain store which handles the P-70 with this way. Please with ease. Size, becomes matter of concern " Being too large, when it does not enter, how it will do... " relief. Simulation was prepared.
