If it's so easy, though, why isn't anyone doing it? There's enough of the darn things out there, isn't there?

I am not the slightest bit interested in the 'technical aspects' of a demo. Only the sound, the sound, the sound... If no-one has done it yet, if no-one has a plethora of demos that DO live up to the potential, don't you think that perhaps achieving that potential might be a BIT harder than you want to make out?

Thing is, James, if your PA2X wasn't capable of doing bass inversions (a basic function around for over a decade), I am not sure you would cut Korg the same slack you do the MS. We both know what the MS is capable of. We apparently disagree on how easy it is, and how functional it is...

And isn't that really WHY we choose arrangers?
