This does not reflect my personal feelings, just my opinion about 'why the stigma?'.

chas


Why would a pro even consider using one. They HAVE BANDS AND BACKUP HARMONY SINGERS ETC ... Arrangers are entirely for those THAT DON'T HAVE BANDS ETC. For those that don't have bands then arranger keyboards are the obvious choice. I don't think it is even a question of pro performers avoiding them. Pro performers and arrangers are worlds apart.
