New Casio gear

[Fade]

So apparently Casio is coming out with some new shit for the 2015 NAMM. Here's an ad they put out. Is it a sampler? I'm assuming. But round? I don't know...

Ah, so there's 2 of them and one is a DJ controller:

I know, it's weird. They don't look good, but the DJ one has promise I suppose. It's of course a take on Qbert's QFO.

Man idk, maybe it's just that the Casio brand has sucked so long, or maybe I just don't take to the individual design of their products as of late. They seem unessasarly indulgent, in an era that good design is finally getting the credit it deserves. Just look at akai as of late, even at their flashiest the designs make sense. Geeze even google is knocking it out of the park with android lollipop. But Casio seems stuck in the past. And not in a cool retro way either.

That's it. Like the ad in the first post, it looks like it's from the 70's!

Let them carry on with making handwatches. Professional music business is not for casio
