| Random X 10.11.2008 | True, that's why I stated not like the Otus. But, that would be one thing, for me, to consider Bome's. (Or maybe try something with deck copy or something. ) |

| Random X 10.11.2008 | Only thing is, by default you cannot switch from one deck to the other with the RAW, like you can on the Otus. |
| Branden Kern 10.11.2008 | Raw FTW....im sure about that whole touch sensitive pitch approach |

Ive contacted EKS asking for a bit more info on the release date but nothing yet(it was a day or two ago i asked). |
| Random X 10.11.2008 | Yeah... but you haven't heared anything since than right? |

| devozz baby 29.10.2008 | k, its been almost 2 weeks since BPM and there is a picture update on www.eks.fi im speculating it has something to do with production, the note says: DND development in progress the rumor was that production might start about now, so lets see |

| SHENG FU 23.10.2008 | If I remember it right I asked about the color of the white XP5. I wanted to know if it's pure white or tinted (yellowish) white. No biggie, but I expected to have an answer. Maybe I should have asked them in English instead of Finnish . Great to hear you have had good experience with them.

| devozz baby 23.10.2008 | actualy, that is the only time i havent got an answer when talking to then by email, all other contact i have had with EKS have been flawless and wery informative, but it is understandable due to buisness policy and such, so imo they are handling the comunications professionaly, but there r some info that cant be released if its not done. So jpdrone, are u shure the info u where lookin for wasnt available on the eks.fi site? only time i didnt get an answer was when i replyed to them on an email that they no longer used, sent the message to the right adress and got an answer the next day. |
| SHENG FU 23.10.2008 | Sorry to hear that. Such company like any other should take good care of PR, but I believe they are not taking it professionally. I mailed them about a year ago and asked about XP5 but didn't get any reply. EKS head office is not too far away from where I live in...

Last time we spoke to them they said it was due very soon, and at a large DJ Show last weekend, they stated it would be around two weeks before its produced. So maybe it will be here before the end of the year. Kind Regards xx @ DJ Equipment and Hardware Department Hard To Find Records so hopfully its not out of the loop yet, so i'll just hang on a bit, im still waiting to se oter info from the BPM show last weekend, as Gizmo of scratchworx was there and have aparently taken loads of pictures of all the stuf at the show, so im hoping some of it is about the Otus, so i guess we just wait a bit more and save some xtra for a second Otus while we wait |

| gilbert hatem 20.10.2008 | I am in the process of a diy controller that is a combo of what I believe the otus and the scs 1d would be like if they had babies. |
| Random X 20.10.2008 | Well, I expect it to be better. Just because you have a solo interface per deck. |
| Gonçalo Guimarães 20.10.2008 | Looks absolutly stunning. But I wonder if this 'single-deck' approach will works as well as the two-deck look (VCI's / Reloop DJ). |
| Random X 20.10.2008 | oh noez! teh horror! |
| gilbert hatem 20.10.2008 | Almost november and nothing yet. This controller maybe lost for ever. |

| gilbert hatem 13.10.2008 | So what happened? Is eks going to wait till after BPM to release this? They better be careful, it may convince people that this is never going to be released. That's how I feel about it right now. |
| Victor BlueDragon 13.10.2008 | I wanted to say that it looks like they went through the a lot of trouble to make a device with a lot of controls, but still won't scratch; which at this point is redundant. (ree-dun-dant). But thanks for the contribution to me ego that I'm the only person who would get that joke. |
| Random X 13.10.2008 | Double post! |

| Random X 27.09.2008 | Hope so! |
| gilbert hatem 26.09.2008 | So four days and counting till the end of September. Do you believe that they can make their own dead line? |
| Xavier Emanuels 06.09.2008 | @ Midian - i believe the Otus is at its best when its paired up with a mixer like the VCI-100. It doesn't have a crossfader(not a traditional one anyway, it uses a knob instead). If i had to choice of 2 EKS Otus's or a VCI and an Otus, which is a realistic situation given the prices, i believe i would go with a VCI and an Otus because they will compliment one another well. |
| gilbert hatem 05.09.2008 | That sounds sweet, lucky much? One of the first hands to touch an Otus. I believe I read or seen a video that was talking about the squares being motion sencers. But, I could be just making things up... so times I dream up cool stuff and believe it's real. lol |
