…and here comes the Hydrasynth Deluxe.
HSX ! Much better.
The right side looks un-aesthetic. Looks like an AFK with more keys.
Yeah that’s kinda ugly! The “Deluxe” text and the “Polytouch” logo look kinda nasty to me. Wonder how much more it will cost?
More details on it here ASM Hydrasynth Deluxe купить в Москве | UNITED MUSIC
129500 Russian rubles is about 1285 English quid, 1775 US bucks, or 1500 euros
I’m wondering if the Deluxe may also mean new firmware ? Perhaps with all the extra keys there is a split mode ?
Or could the Deluxe be multi-timbral ? Bi-timbrality would be very nice.
ADDED: I see the ribbon goes out just to 4 octaves.
The empty space on the right looks perfect for a digitakt/tone combo!
I’ve extended the thread title to include the Deluxe version for now.
ASM have had words with the intern at the Russian store. The links now go to 404 pages 
What to do if you’re ASM ?
Now i feel bad jumping on this with a thread.
It probably wouldn’t be more than a few days off for the announcement as it was.
ADDED: Knobcon Chicago starts tomorrow, and ASM is at Knobcon, so these announcements may only have been leaked a day early.
Deluxe is bitimbral 16 voices.
Leaks happen. It’s the store’s fault, not yours. And it’s not going to stop people buying them when they eventually come out anyway. All is well.
Keeping something like this secret these days is difficult i think. I wonder if they factor that in?
The desktop pads would have been an interesting thing to have put over there. Or as a place to set an HSD !
That empty space should have faders for the envelopes
Love that they include an accessory shelf. It’s very funny to me but also I would 100% make use of it.
I’ve been considering picking up either a Polybrute or Hydrasynth as my main synth/controller. The Deluxe makes the choice that much harder…
It would be nice to know the dimensions of the space with the accessory shelf.
I’m pretty sure they’ll supply them somewhere.
