stop it genesys, you really are too much, its like hearing a politician backtrack on promises they made before they became elected but more funny :-). Nobody said anything about any style from the MS sounding out of the box better than a yammy or hell even a casio or bontempi. You know this entire debate has been about the ease (or not) with which an MS as an arranger in style play can be made to sound better than a closed arranger. Surely you have caught the theme of this thread ???? Where did out of the box come from ???????

Even Dom would not be so foolish as to make that kind of boast . You know what has been said and implied by Dom and i am genuinely surprised that you are now making the statements that you are making .

I dont know if its deliberate to derail what Dennis and James are trying to do for the rest of us or not but this is actually quite a beneficial discussion here and it doesnt help when you throw in smoke screens and red herrings that have nothing to do with the debate and you must know that out of the box styles from the MS (which arnt even created on the MS) is an irrelevance in this discussion.

And for the record , i am not a detractor of the MS or any instrument. I want to see the thing work like it has been advertised it would /should. I just have a hard time swallowing a manufacturers claims when they have not been able to back it up and none of its customers have either over the last 7 years.

You cant blame me for being just a little doubtful especially as i cant access an MS myself without paying for one up front.
