Wow Chony thank you for the HONEST & Very informative review. Reading your comments only emphasizes that each company has the pros & cons, strengths & weaknesses & you have to pick & choose what is better for YOUR Needs in an arranger for sure. I do agree with many of your assessments having owned & performed with both Korg & Yamaha myself eg: the Korg file system was very annoying for me also, too many steps........personal tolerance & comfort requirements change with each player. We're getting better with each offering, lets hope the next few years brings us closer to perfect as possible.....meanwhile keep us posted on your progress we all learn from each other. Personally I pretty much know what Tyros 3 is bringing next to the table.....its the next TOTL Roland arranger that has me curious & hoping that some of my needs are addressed.
