That's enough time for you to sort out your finances and save up enough money. You know you want one.

Damn, expected release date of August!

If Aug is true of Germany, than my prediction is on point as I estimated a July release date for the US.

I just searched my old emails. The MPC 2500 was released in Sept 2005 and I had a few up on eBay. I even gave MPC Forum members first shot at them before I listed them. The MPC 5000 was released in Oct 2008 in the US.

does anyone know the conversion rate?

About $1012 USD.

i think normally its about the same price in € as $
so i guess 799$ and 449$ - all to be revealed on Wednesday I guess

Not in US currency. When this releases it will be $1010.57


Assuming store value will bring this down to $800 if $1010.57 is the MSVRP. If it does sell at $800 then I guess you could say that is pretty fair for this product as the Maschine goes for $600.

Also remember that these prices include 19% sales tax (VAT in europe), so the price before tax will be around €675, which is approx $900 US for the Ren.

those are very competitively priced imo

^^wurdd
I hope the software is not full o bugs and we got a winner

yeah not badly priced. $799 for the Ren maybe $499 for Studio, $299 for Fly are my guesses.

8/2012 - is this realistic? i mean in this case native inst. had sooo much time to react.

Cool info. NAMM didn't really tell me much except look out for the Summer NAMM..lol. Nicely priced.
