Got so excited (no not really) that I originally posted these in the wrong topic.

Is this a new item? AW2+ clipon.

All the product ID links at Korg now appear to just show the main page. Maybe we weren't supposed to see those links just yet.

SV-1 Limited Edition

and

SV-1 Black

Looks like just cosmetic changes to either of those.

As well as Pitchclip COLORS and AW-2G COLORS.

Looks like that completes the lineup for this NAMM.

Well, what do you expect when last year was the KRONOS! Glad that Korg is taking a bit of a breather. More time to work on the editor!

Nothing spectacular this time from KORG, but they're probably focusing on next year.
I DO like the look of the SV-1 Limited Edition a lot! Maybe a nice idea for a KRONOS special edition?

Another year without a new Electribe. I really thought 2012 would be the year. Every year I wait for NAMM and hoping for a suped up ESX and EMX and to no avail.

If thats all the SV-1 news then I am totally bummed and disappointed with Korg. The SV-1 is going on 3 years old and needed to be updated on the inside and not just painted black or reversed painted. The original SV-1 looked better anyway. I am still hoping for something better than this before NAMM is over otherwise its been a big let down from Korg as far as I am concerned. 500 units painted black is pretty much a big nothing.

Have to agree with that statement! Not sure why reps from music stores are actually bothering going...

Yes it looks quite cool...

Wish they would release some more Soundpacks for the SV series too...

I know, CME also used to have a limited edition of one of their controllers with reverse coloured keys.
Next year its KORG's anniversary, so maybe we'll see an anniversary KRONOS as well.
