i don't see anything in the Wikipedia article stating about a return, but i went to the Ensoniq website and there were a few links on the images and they're gone now :?
hmmmmmmm

if they do come back i hope they make some dope banging as sh*t
and not some shitty ass controllers (which is what i'm fearing)

unless this is some late April Fools :angry:

Kinda Sad when you look at it really though.

ASR10's were produced in the mid-90's and still are used to day. Super intuitive, sampling and sequencing is dead easy, top notch effects, rock solid case. Imagine what they would be coming out now if they never got swooped up by creative labs. We all might be using different more advanced gear. Instead, we have Nu-Akai releasing the same thing, with just cheaper less stable, worse sounding parts.
