Hi Diki,

James, I could be gigging on my K2500, Triton, and a bunch of other gear. But I don't... Want to know why? Because they take FOREVER to make sound good.
And it's for reasons like that is why I said that you were afraid of the Mediastation and you underestimate your own abilities. You have gotten lazy Diki and there's simply no excuse for this. Not when you do have the ability do take something like the Medaistation and with LITTLE effort turn it into your dream machine.
You just need a good kick in the arse and to cop on to yourself. Nothing I have demonstrated in any of the the video's I've uploaded is complicated when measured to the standards I think you are at. You could easily gather up a collection of the best styles around from all makes and models of keyboards, dump them into the Mediastation and spend 5 to 10 minutes on each style remapping all the sounds and balance until they are exactly how you like them.
This will automatically give you a sound that will match any arranger keyboard by default but instead of that being all it's got sound wise like all closed arrangers, you can expand on this over time as you see fit and use ultra realistic sounds from Giga , AKAI, VSTi Libraries or whatever else takes your fancy.
As I said in other posts, there is a level of pride you get from doing all this and to play with ultra realistic sounds that are far beyond that of closed keyboards is quite a feeling. I don't mean to just compare one to the other, I mean simply forget the limitations of a closed keyboard and to load up 1GB Piano that's so detailed that you can even hear the felt on the hammers.
It's pretty freaking exciting actually and it really makes you put the passion into your music.
Seriously mate, you have no idea what your missing by sticking your head into that G70 of yours. Music is a passion, not just something you do to make a few bucks.
