Force2 is on the menu!

Don't know, but I hope they remodeled that Force Keys. There's was no tilt screen & the pad layout was 5x8. I want a non-key Force 2 first.

Unless they drop them together, but with its 64 pads that can convert to 64 keys or 4 octaves, is the last unit that's needs keys, so please let it come out later. Plus, most Force users aren't requesting keys, most if anything want a smaller Force. A mini Force with 32 pads would make more $en$e.

32 pads would kill the way the step sequencer works and that’s one of the things I really like about it.

Suck for you but, this device would be more for the MPC users coming from only 16 pads. They would be able to use it as a 32 step-seq & have an extra bank for playing chops. The Force should have it's own line of models. They were going to make the Force keys at one point & that might still come out later. I just want g2 Force with a tilt screen & better case to button contrast. The black buttons on the custom white Force stood out better. I ordered the white faceplate cover & will be picking it up from the post today.

If anything I’d want F2 to have more buttons and be larger. Moving between mpc x and force is frustrating with all the buttons that are missing on force like overdub

A Force XL would be amazing!
More buttons, add a touchstrip & put the 8 track buttons on top of the pads so it mirrors to the matrix screen. A Force Key-88 with weighted keys & 16 track & knobs would also be cool.

Uh - no overdub button on the Force ? How do you manage that ?

I assume it’s there somewhere using one of the long press options or shift key, probably.
