the discontinuation of syntronik 2 was very odd as it wasn't that old of a product. released in 2022 i think. the discontinuation of mixbox was odd as it seems they were positioning it as one of their most well regarded and well reviewed products. it makes me think there were bugs in them that IKM didn't want to invest more into fixing them or updating to newer versions of the products. makes me wonder whether SampleTank and/or Modo Bass and Modo Drum will be next. IKM are a very big and very smart company and understand this business well. it all makes me think they may be slowly positioning themselves out of the software market and moving into just hardware. the truth is, software is a very over crowded market.
