Again I ask what direction will the Arranger KB manufacturers go in the near future to compensate for what we are talking about regarding the "NEW YOUNGER MUSICAL GENERATION"?
If it continues the way its going it's not going to endure longevity as in the past. These small increment upgrades model release after model release to pick away at peoples pocketbooks is frustrating and pretty soon players will just have had enough & will want some MAJOR CHANGES!
I personally saw it all coming as a Pro player and made the necessary changes I needeed to continue to perform mixing it ALL Up one way or another with Styles, Live playing, Backing tracks, Mp3's, DJ'ing, etc, ....they are all in my Tool Box ready to use combined with great Vocals and Backup Harmonies. Jump on board the new generation train people, adapt and make changes now, or your gonna miss the ride very soon & be left at the station.
