And that right there Nigel, is the very simple transition in the way that people think about arrangers that needs to happen for arrangers to be the go to instrument for professionals and hobbyists alike.

This is the simple point i have been making for years, whether you use auto accompaniment in its fullest or striped down to bass and drum or use the keyboard as a solo instrument or as part of a live band , an aranger is all things to all people. Forhget that it is called an arranger keyboard. Its simply a keyboard with options !

If Keith Jarret or some other big name spent a full day with a tyros or korg they could make incredible music and have just as much fun doing it as they do o their current gear.
