Nu Desine has announced the AlphaSphere Nexus, a more affordable version of its AlphaSphere controller:
We are proud to announce, only four months after our initial elite ship date, a brand new addition to the AlphaSphere product line: The AlphaSphere nexus.
The nexus features our industry pioneering pressure sensitive pads, and robust modular design at an accessible price; without sacrificing the quality that musicians have come to expect from the AlphaSphere.
The nexus comes with everything you need to create and control electronic music, including easy integration with your current set up. Our goal is to get the most expressive an innovative controller on the market into your hands, so that you can take your music to the next level.
AlphaSphere nexus will be launching around the world in the next several months, but is already available stateside from a couple of online retailers.
Street price is about US $900. See the AlphaSphere site for details.
I hope they keep iterating this. I’d like to see a half-circle version of this for half the price. The pads on the bottom half of the sphere seem like a waste of sensors to me.
But would you be able to play Hacky Sack with only one half?
