This might be interesting. Seems hardware sample based synths are becoming in vogue now, as are digital based synths. Interesting how the history is sort of repeating itself in many ways. Obviously analog synths are still popular are there's still room for experimentation and products in that realm but it's nice to see other types of synthesis become more prevalent, especially in larger form factors.

Oh… if done right, could this finally be a Kronos Killer… after 10 years of it being King of the Hill? I would be interested in something like that… if it has a better keybed than a Kronos…
