my faves are the Vox 2 and the LinnDrum

C'mon, it's not even turned on

that camo-korg IS DISGUSTING!!!

Do they have no style left in the syle-box?!

I'd say the Virus more so for the atomizer than the snow though

Umm... is there a NEW Vox organ?

Wow, I never thought that the Virus Ti Snow would be the highlight for me... what a snoozefest. The Linndrum II doesn't count.

Dunno, that Vox would look good in my living room...

And yes I agree about the MM OS: Why?? Nostalgia??

And who at Korg's been on the crack? I mean, c'mon. Blaaaaah

A new Vox combo organ? Seriously?

Serious?

Well... the Vox doesn't look like any Vox I've ever seen, with the drawbar placement, rotary dials and what appears to be a long LED screen. Could Korg be following Clavia's C1 lead?

I'm interested with the Arturia Origin and the Akai XR20.

Linndrum II (but it doesnt really count)

kinda digging the microkorg reverse but when i say dig i mean using a sand shovel and concrete is my digging area.

mpc 5k falls a little flat for me

Virus snow but a little or a lot out of my reach

Prophet rack i love but damn it came late since i have the keyboard ver

i guess im not really excited about anything

2nd
so far I haven't seen anything that truly blows my mind!
other than that camoflague korg, it blew me away with it's uglyness

..it's truuuuly gross

Well... the Vox excites me. A closer look reveals that it's a CX-3 front panel and keyboard with reversed keys. If they could bring this in at CX-3 prices, with decent combo emulations, Clavia would have a problem with the C1.

I'm flabbergasted - I absolutely and unreservedly want one!
