I just got back from the Messe. It was really fantastic.

Perhaps first some general slightly negative impressions:
- less visitors (not god for the companies that are there)
- some big companies missing (I didn't find any EMU or Panasonic/Ramsa 
booth)
- not that much new stuff

The good things:
+ Elektron had teamed up with Jomox, Sherman and other companies and 
they had two really great booths. The vibe at those booths was great.
+ I've talked to lots of very nice people (including great Elektron 
folks: David, Henrik, Anders.... but I missed out on Daniel... he had a 
very busy schedule and every time I got at their booth, he was gone)

More news soon... wanna get some rest first though. I'm exhausted. :)

The Virus C and Virus C keyboard are basically the Virus B (kb) + extra 
voices, some more modulation possibilities and a new interface. I have a 
Virus B KB and investing in the C would be a senseless investment for me.
It looks OK, but I personally adore the wood on mine. The new interface 
is OK, but to be honest: I wasn't impressed. If you don't own a Virus B 
yet though, then i think the Virus C is the way to go! It's still a 
great synth imo.

Cheers,
Joeri
