Where Are The Reviews?

Postby stringtapper » 16 Oct 2017, 22:43

I find it a bit odd that a piece of gear that had an official release date of July still hasn't been reviewed by a single music gear outlet.

Is this just because Clavia is a boutique manufacturer or do you think the apparent delay that occurred from August through September have some impact?

Although they have been released, they have been in extremely limited supply in much of the world. That’s my guess as to why we haven’t seen many reviews

On top of that, I'm pretty sure they would prefer to have all the major bugs solved before sending any unit to a magazine for review....

And the reviews from the retailers, like Sweetwater, even if they are very helpful, are more based on features, not comparison with other keyboards.... They are here more to sell than to be impartial....
