I pre-ordered back on Jan 24. I guess time will tell - we need to start a pool

April or June...why skip May? April Kronos brings May compos-itions!

hey: building post count is no small deal.

facebook is not selling anything either, and they are supposed to be worth billions, just because they have "contacts".

It's about relations, not about "products".

Maybe if a forumer gets 10.000 posts, Goldman Sachs is gonna buy him out and he'll have the money to take over Korg.

That's the internet, honey.

Btw, here's my contribution: finally, a meaningful post:

I do admit, I am disgusted by folks that simply want to rip on Korg
just because they have a forum login. Or an ax to grind from 4 years ago. No value add.

...

Its easy for these noisy posters to diminish companies like Korg. The noisy
posters are not building anything, other than post count.

My friend, with a due respect to your view point, there is little or no value add of the above statements either - really need an elaboration for this simple fact?

Not sure whether it means anything, but the latest post on Novamusik's Facebook wall (from 6 hours ago) states it's coming any day now.

Thanks for the update BillW! I guess I can always hope its on schedule

I didn't even think about their facebook page - I'd better go like it!

It would be a very pleasant surprise for me. I've squeezed about all I can from my current live rig and can't wait to have a nice rompler plus VA, B3 and FM all in one box with all of that effects and EQ power.

we should be in ' fact land '

we know there are some Kronos boards showing up at retail very soon
in Japan (read that elsewhere).

If Kronos is arriving late April in Long Beach, the factory/distribution center in Japan should be prepping the units for the container right about now.

A volume of units should be available to cover all the US pre-orders, IMO.

IMO, we haven't heard anything definitive other than June from Sweetwater.

I am not an official source- I am trying to assemble what I have read and back into the basics of time & container shipping from Japan to Long Beach.

I suspect & hope we will know for certain in a week.

Thanks
