Another workstation hybrid! Looks interesting too. They don't seem to go into much detail about the VA section though.

EDIT: Yes they do! Just found this there....

The Fusion contains a very flexible virtual analog synth. The VA engine offers three oscillators with ring modulation and lots of flexible routing as well. The engine features multiple types of filters with variable poles to emulate the characteristics of many vintage analog synths. The Fusion also offers in-depth modulation assignments of countless parameters. The VA engine in the Fusion goes far beyond other VA synths?even ones that only do virtual analog synthesis. With the user defined modulation table assignments it?s like having a modular analog synth that can remember all your crazy patch cable routes every time you call up the program.

C'mon Namm!!

Hopefully Access puts a release date on the TI :wink:

We will no something by the end of thursday I believe. There is no way Access can survive NAMM without a million people asking them the release date of the TI, if they choose not to volunteer the info.

My guess is it will ship from Germany on Thursday! :lol:
Of course that is just a Guess :wink:

Looks like another one of those synths that does everything but doesnt do it perfect...oh yeah and i bet it will be list at 2k+ for the price...personally i dont see why you need a mixer/multitracker on a keyboard when everyone uses some sort of mixer, whether it be software or hardware...but thats just me...

peace

If it sounds anything like the ION then I'm guessing it can do VA pretty well.

Having a mutlitrack recorder could be a bit of overkill I agree, but having it there may have unforeseen benifits - it would be nice to be able to trigger tracks off as if they were samples for example (not saying it could do this, but who knows).

C'mon Namm!!
