NAMM 2013 Rumours - new Roland Workstation?

[johnxyz]

If we did get it, i'd start again!

But seriously, the Jupegra V would mop up, its a no brainer. Who here wouldn't save up for one?? They'd make a fortune….

I should be in charge...

[JavaJ]

Maybe they will introduce a new expansion slot as well- as ARX did oh so well!!!

[johnxyz]

I know for a fact the Jupegra-V has all the ARX boards also… and the D50 board..

Yes , a bench which holds an 'IPAD app driven usb quad hub' to store all your different projects
Ofcourse you can only use 2 simultaneously.

Quite…. I did mention that its only monophonic… didn't I?

Just got my new catalogue today and the fantom g wasn't in it. Could this mean there is a new workstation on the way???!!! If I could just get a sn arx piano board for my g I'd stfu seriously. Oh we'll 15 more hours until we find out!!!!

BEATmakerCOPE - welcome to RC :)

I'd seriously love it if such was announced from Roland... money waiting for their next gen workstation :)

I'm intrigued about the lack of countdown on Roland Connect - and also the preview before the show opens. Get the jump on publicity?

Whilst there will be several new bits of kit of interest I'm sure, what will the big three produce?

Korg? - My guess is nothing significant. Kronos X is most recent. They're still getting a multitude of issues with the older Kronos with motherboard issues now being mentioned. 50th anniversary yes, but if there is something new, they will wait for that.

Yamaha? - new workstation rumoured; will it happen?

Roland? - Would be great timing to release a quality next gen workstation. Can only hope!

Thx for the welcome!! Yeah korg is gonna stick with kronos/krome. Yamaha really?? Interesting but I'm not goin there. I literally sold my xf because I hate yamahas idea of an os!! Fantom g makes more since with its menus and buttons. A black fantom g would be dope!!! An arx sn piano would be amazing!!! Cha ching$ . A new workstation would be a dream come true. It'd be like coming back from a 17-0 lead to win the championship!!! ;)

Not long now..
Just a few more hours for the roland recycle machine will kick in to action once again
Whoo Hoo! ;-D

[BEATmakerCOPE]

The Roland Fantupitor gi-7r is here!!! Check the specs out!! Www.THISisFAKE.com. Awesome it has a Jupiter-80 with an integra v piano engine with Mpc pads. 792 polyphony and 1tb sample ram and comes with real ivory keys on the 61 76 and 88 key models. It only take 1 hour to power up and and doesn't have a screen but has a cool black light under it!!!

Well that was very disapointing. The wait continues for that workstation.

As you were gentlemen.

http://www.rolandconnect.com/ - nothing for me this time :(

I guess the V-Combo may be of interest to the Korg Krome type market, but that's it I think.
