This thread heats up because the reason comes back to origin of these two keyboards. Kronos Ads was very successful because it had 9engines, and each one has different sound such as pysical modeling, FM synth etc.. Who don't wanna buy this keyboard? Whereas Jupiter80 failed their Ads because of the ...

Hi, All Since I have Jupiter 80 at my home, I want to show you my test play with several sound tracks of movie. Sorry for bit lousy sound record system, this video couldn't record actual sound I played with JP80. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZ3r8ZdM-xI I used to have Kronos73, but after found ...

Ujiie is a freaking legend, I love his Youtube synth reviews!

Yeah, right!
He is addressing in below video that he used to join to make YAMAHA VL1 sound engine.
So, this time he cooperated with Korg, that is absolutely wonderful.

Today, again I played JP80 on GC, and after going home, I played layer sounds with Korg M50. I think making layers is so much troublesome in M50, but JP80 is so easy and most importantly, sound is much massive. I also have Kronos although that is out of order, now in process of repairing, but even ...

I happened to play JP80 at Guitar Center since it was released in US, and my word is "WOW"!! I was doubting about some opinion from Japan, but after playing JP80 for 2 hrs, I would say JP80 is better than Kronos overall. Then reason why I say it is because I like simple but good sound than tweaking ...

AnthonyB I dare not specify which sound is better than Kronos. I already have Kronos73, and mostly satisfied with that. Then Jupiter 80 comes up, and didn't expect much about that. However, after touching actual JP80 keyboard, it makes me so much impressive. It has more deep and large sound. I ...

Hey, I just happened to play the JP80 in guitar center today since this is already out in US. And I have to say JP80 has really awesome sound. Personally, and Honestly I had to admit JP80 is better sound than Kronos. So, just try on Kronos61 and JP80 somewhere, and decide your mind. I already bought ...

I have to admin Jupiter80 is awesome sound, and I personally think Jupiter80 has better sound than Kronos.
This is my conclusion after playing two hour in Guitar Center.

You guys better check how good it is since this is already out in US.

I also found same issue on K73, so it may not be only on 88Key.
Also, in my case, If holding E key, and press Ckey, that C is slightly harder than other keys. So I think this is initial failure.

Still waiting answer from Korg,, if they fix or return new one.
Very frustrating situation,,,

Here is pretty good demo to listen to Jupiter80 sound, which has an hour demo. http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/15561975 FGTH- Yes, I was also very interested in "Behavior Modeling" with super natural sound. I think official demo they did at Frankfurt Musikmesse 2011 is pretty bad,,, So, it didn't ...

Hi, All I didn't care about other rival product such as XF or Jupiter,, but still had kept an eye on the twitter comment on Kronos and Jupiter80, and found some people are saying that Jupiter80 is better sound than Kronos. Since Jupiter80 is not released yet in US, but it is released in Japan last ...
