…the comment about possibly pushing OP-1 music to the OD-11 is also interesting.

Based on that picture, it would seem they will have exactly the same HW as the other POs (except for the display, of course).

Btw, I remember some japanese singer app or device being discussed here or somewhere not that long ago, but I can’t recall witch one it was… anybody knows it?

Also, what a “composition” means here? Is that something geared towards non-sequencer style music?

^ Maybe it was the VOCALOID series… This poor thing seem the latest released using that engine:

#14

the PO-XB has a “key-oo” button which leads me to think that it won’t be a sampler?


on another hand the PO-XA has a funct. button tho it’s a "voice synth"

maybe they just mixed it up or maybe i’m just overthinking

OMG a Stylophone MIKU now I’ve seen everything.

I thought this was interesting:

“Using the same workflow as games design (long projects). Programmers from EA implemented their task system.”
