What better proof do we need of the fact that modern arrangers are completely out of touch with the needs of younger players..?

And what hope is there for the continued health of this type of instrument if the only people it appeals to is an ever diminishing pool of aging users?

It is WAY past time for 'the convergence'... WS power and sounds with arranger ease of use. Without this, they are going the way of the 'home organ' (anyone remember those? )
