PeterHamm Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 This does not mean that Yamaha runs Line 6, btw. That is not historically how they have worked.For instance, when Yamaha owned Korg at the height of the synth craze, late 80s early 90s, technology did not go back and forth between them.Nothing in an M1 ever made it into an SY77 or vice versa, for instance. Not even FX.Yamaha did, it seems, manufacture the actual key bed mechanism for Korg, as they did for, iirc, others as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spikey Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 This does not mean that Yamaha runs Line 6, btw. That is not historically how they have worked. OTOH, Yamaha has deep pockets and business clout, something I'm pretty sure (for whatever reason) helps Line-6 from time to time on different endeavors, no matter who runs them.
