Oooh cool!

First discovery after the initial (happy) shock:

The screenshot shows the 88 keys model (goes down to A0), and it has drawbars - that's cool!

[neomad]

Drawbars with lights + mixer kind like NW2

[AlexNagel]

Just guessing: If the green LED bars are volume controls, they might be controlling organ panels A + B, piano panels A + B and THREE(!!!) synth panels A + B + C??? Mmh, does this make sense?

Maybe 3 synth per panel?

[Jusrgen]

I hope..... the Price is under 5.000 Euro!!!

[AlexNagel]

Maybe 3 synth per panel?

Or they completely ditched the concept of two separate panels A and B? So that we now have 2 organs + 2 pianos + 3 synth engines that can be addressed and combined independently?

Anyway: I wonder how the effect section is implemented.

[florence]

Yes possible too

Yep.

There's faders next to those LED chains and "active" buttons below each fader (with green status LEDs). All engines are on, all faders and drawbars are down.

Looks like we're losing the "Panel A/Panel B" structure and going to directly accessible dual organ, dual piano, and triple synth engines.

Here's another version of the teaser that I brightened up:
