NAMM 2004 - The Unofficial Access Virus & Virus TI Forum

Will Access be parading/previewing anything new, perhaps, to tantalise us with and tickle our tastebuds? Or will they be riding the success of the latest OS upgrade (I've heard good things about the Moog filter for the lucky Virus-C owners!

)?

I'll suspect that Access will only have the new OS on display.

I think the one most interesting thing is Korg's new workstation. They have to bring up a follower for Tritons. Let's see does Korg do it again by releasing total crap with high price.

Korg "Tempest", or somesuch. Info is scant. I have a loaded Trinity, and certainly none of the Tritons tempted me to jump ship and upgrade so far as I think some features/functions took a back-step in the transition. It will be interesting to see this new workstation, especially as the Tritons were in the sea of very stiff competition from the Roland Fantoms and Yammy's Motifs, particularly the latter.

I know the new monomachine should be out there. New synthesis. Now they have a non-keyboard "desktop" version. Should turn some heads. No longer will there be VAs. People will soon realize the real possiblities of DSPs.

korg will present their new vst line
access will show off their new "moog filters"

Timo · #9 18.12.2003, 12:37 AM

Outbreak!

Touchscreen, too! (one hopes

)

Hi guys, I've gotta correct myself as apparently the new Korg workstation is supposedly to be called "Triton Extreme", along with including valves as the MX Electribe did. Allegedly.

I hope Novation pull their finger out, though, regards hardware virtual-analogue, as the K-Station seems to have taken a bad rap in various places on the 'net.
