miden, I am sure you are right, but I can't see the average arranger player using this board for Pop music and Dance music..
Most of the players here have complained about setting up the keyboards..they mentioned they want to play out of the box..No way they are going to use the M3..
Personally, I like the challenge of programming and setting up my keyboards to suit me..the M3 might just be a little more for what I would get out of it..
