There is more than one in existence. There have been about 6 that have been auctioned off for charity over the years. I have no idea why Sasha is not using another one on his tour. My only guess is that they have a crew looking at the one that broke to find out exactly what went wrong before they make another one, or maybe they are making another one and it is just taking some time. |

“I’ve never ever had a problem with the Maven, but in Miami after sound check, I took the Maven back to the hotel to work out my set,” explains Sasha.
“When I tried to turn it on, it didn’t do anything.
“I think one of the power parts in it blew up.”
The Maven has been sent to MIDI hospital, and since then Sasha has been using a couple of different MIDI controllers.
For the Boston and Philadelphia gigs, he was running off an Evolution UC-33e, a rather cheap and flimsy controller compared to the Maven.
Then in New York at Webster Hall, he played off the much bigger and more impressive Korg Zero 8 controller, which Sasha has been using ever since.
“The Korg is really great actually,” says Sasha. “It is really nice to play off.”
The Maven might catch up with the tour at some point, but for now the Korg is Sasha’s tool of choice to control Ableton. |
there is only one in existence, why would he be using a KORG? plus, i heard from other dj's that opened for Sasha that he told them there was only one. who knows?
