My guess is a new replacment might come, but that it would be called the Epilogue. I feel the Monologue 2 would come first though.

Behringer participation this year will be interesting.

They boycotted NAMM for about a decade, and instead tried to make some splashy announcements during this time to compete with introductions being made at the Show.

Since NAMM is intended primarily for music merchants and manufacturers to connect, Behringer’s participation raises the question of whether their goal is to change their distribution model, to get their gear into a lot more physical stores, rather than just their online ‘super partners’.

I didn’t see a Deepmind 12 or Neutron or Proton at previous NAMM shows.
Maybe Behringer will surprise the synth world with something new and unexpected.
An Electron?

only 1,000’s? that’s some tiny show.

To check on B-word’s latest and greatest, just hop in a time machine and visit a bunch of other manufacturers’ booths from a few years ago.

…and there’s a Stages Knockoff (you’re welcome). they got the LED colors right this time. perhaps bellyaching the issue helped.

open innovation for the win!

“but who cares?”
Obviously you don’t… but let me assure that thousands do 😉

I guess they’ll be there this year, but who cares? the action is on their facebook page everyday. why wait for a silly tradeshow.

Things got disrupted during the pandemic and they combined the two shows when they brought them back. Not sure if there’s plans to bring back the Summer show. It was never a big show for electronic music gear.
