I think a lot of the disagreement regarding the MS being marketed on this forum and the usefulness of open keyboards stems from persons not able to articulate �what is an arranger�.
I have posted topics on what is an arranger (or words to that effect) but no one really answered the question.

More importantly is the �arranger� an evolving concept or does it stay as one way of making music.

Notice I am not asking what is a good arranger, but I am only asking the basic of questions that is what does a keyboard have to have in order to be able to be call an arranger.

Is an arranger an ends or a means.
