@Dubbylabby yes, like the mockup!
Ripcord is a neat project but part of the appeal of more USB power as the default is the jacks on the units themselves. In USBtopia, we no longer need to have 14 different barrel sizes.
Nice design! I don't know if it's possible but I think the question is more about desirability. Getting my hand over a cable end to twist a knob doesn't sound all that fun, plus, they'd obscure the little buttholes.
Jacks go on the side of the head (in order to look like whiskers). You may have that idea for free.
USB-C is going to help a lot in the power distribution department, 100W
Do you happen to know from a design and cost perspective if it's more difficult or more expensive to implement USB power vs something like a 9v barrel connector? If so, how much more? cc @u0421793?
I'm hopeful that any increase in cost would be mitigated by a similar negative offset in the cost of inclusing a wallwart. Of course, pedals and the like do not generally come with one of those so those makers wouldn't see the offset.
I wanna see Dan from Akai demo a new Akai synth.
Speaking of Akai, I hope those rumors about them making their mpc touch into a stand-alone thing are true.
I want a < $400 sample based drum machine with
I think this is basically the Roland TR-8 with sample import, no silly space restrictions and a few extra per-sound tweaks. Electribe 2S comes close as well but falls short in other ways, particularly the volume sliders and the magical overview grid.
Imagine this could be done with something like an Arduino and two NanoKontrol 2s (and a lot of programming time/skill). I just wanna buy it and would prefer it be a single box. Same could be likely be done with an iphone, audio/midi interface and two NanoKontrol 2s. Again though, single dedicate box ftw.
I'd love to see a midi controller with a built in audio interface. Built in speakers, battery-powered, 49 keys.
Almost just like the reface models, but with just a little bit bigger keys and an extra octave. That'd be amazing!
Maybe someday yamaha will make a reface xl with 49 keys. One can dream!
It's more difficult but only expensive at the moment, soon it'll be cheap and universally available in almost everything. The thing about Power Delivery is that there has to be USB 3/C level negotiation regarding profile availability, beyond the level of arbitration present in USB 2 for the Battery Charging spec (BC-1.1 & 1.2)/

Currently, TI; Cypress; ST; NXP; Fairchild Semi (On), and others have chipsets and implementations in the field.

It really is quite exciting, and the sooner everything is USB-C the better (i.e., tomorrow morning would be nice).
Come to think of it, Arturia is pretty close to a device like this as well. I know analog is all the rage but wish Arturia would make one of these in addition to the Drum Brute. Who doesn't love access to drum samples?
The DrumBrute is already close to the ideal (including pattern storage, project storage, pattern chaining, variable length patterns...). Add samples and an overview grid, rejigger some other bits. Profit! Could dump some of the outputs and minimize some of the per-drum controls (not to mention all of the analog circuitry) to cover the cost of the sample engine.
Novation X-Station does all of this minus the speakers. 25, 49 and 61 key models are still floating out there. You can mix iPad audio (or any usb/computer audio) with two additional analog inputs.
wow man, thank you for all of this info.
I missunderstood the first message sorry. Maybe with usb 3/c it becomes improved but at the moment usb2 standard can't power things like volcas.
Strymon releases all of their effects as iOS apps/Auria IAPs
I hope Korg finally drops that Volca toaster they keep teasing. Quit holding out on us, Tats!
Hubba hubba.

Roland has an mixer coming for ios
Looks pretty plasticky and will most likely cost as much as steinberg ur22 mkii or other quality interfaces(with less inputs ofc) and i highly doubt it will sound very good
I read $99US
Okay. Well thats same as ur12, not much less than ur22

I would love to see Roland make a new MC909 Groovebox. IE: All there Boutiques in one box with a sequencer.
I'm addicted to Novation X-stations since I first saw Syrupcore mention them arround 15 months ago.
I own 4 now! haha
Regarding Namm 2017... I'd love to see what a dedicated Novation controller for Blocs Wave would look like.
The rumors have been pretty much confirmed via leaked FCC documents (including a user's guide:) The MPC Touch unit will be a hybrid controller/standalone. The 2nd unit will look more like the MPC Ren with a touchscreen which also will be a hybrid controller/standalone. I already have the Touch and I'm looking forward to the release of the 2.0 software that was demoed at last year's NAMM and slated to be released in 2016 but never made it. As far as the need for another stand-alone unit, I don't have a need for it. It would end up being connected to a computer 99% of the time to access all of the VSTIs that I own. Folks miss stand-alone units primarily for nostalgic reasons much the same way hardware synth users miss some of the older, clunky gear from past years (I'm guilty of that at times:)
Looking forward to see what Roland brings forth, would love to see iReason as well as more wireless controllers.
That, or they want (and can) make music without a DAW. There are lotsa DAWless musicians out there. Two different ways going about making music, in the box and outside the box.
Personally I kinda got that kind of setup. One is my DAW, which is purely software based, with a midi controller/keyboard hooked up to it. The other is purely hardware based, away from any DAWs. Two completely different workflows. I like it, it keeps me from getting stuck doing the same crap over and over.
The new akai touch, if the price is right, would be my Electribe2/Circuit. I sold them both, but need a sampler/beat maker thing that handles projects etc. Edit: that doesn't suck :-)
Another outlandish never gonna happen one from me. Sonic Research Turbo Tuner for iOS. I've tried to get along using iStrobosoft and stuff like that, but they jump around so much they are practically unusable.
what could it be
Probably this but what people miss it is windws10 based.

Some of us stare at computers all day are disinclined to continue to do so at night.
I actually wonder if that's about the MPC. Seemed like it was all British, all "electronic music". I know MPCs were (are?) popular with that world but the lack of American hip hop heads makes me wonder if they have something else coming out.
