. . . anyone who is satisfied with the current state of on-board styles in the Tyros2 truly deserves the status of "home user". You may also squeak by if your professional musical ambitions don't extend beyond the local nursing home or perhaps the coffee shop next door to one.
. . . someone else in a prior thread also noted that the level of musicianship, talent, and professionalism, was considerably lower on this (arranger) board than say on a comparable "workstation" board. Whether or not we want to believe it, that person was also correct.
. . . take those darn built-in microphones off the arrangers, it tempts to many awful singers to try it.
Chas, though I respect your personal opinion, I disagree.
Also, considering the fact that I'm one of the few pro musician-vocalists here utilizing a "Tyros2", and who has recently contributed my songs here as well, wondering if perhaps you had been referring to ME?!
Yeah, I perform at nursing & senior venues too (btw: I agree with DonM that these gigs are often most personally gratifying), but my gig work is 'far from' limited to just that. Tyros2 'styles & sounds', in the right hands (no 'schlager' here), can sound top-notch pro. My gig venues also include commercial restaurant/bar establishments as well as exclusive private & corporate parties, in which local dignitaries & celebs frequent, and the music (+ vocals) I provide on Tyros2 continue to satisify my most discriminating clients (of which are often pro musicians too), evidenced by repeat business & generous tips.
Chas: The best of luck to you in finding the (arranger?) keyboard you're really looking for.
