G-70 is it Arranger or Workstation?
~It has styles, therfore it is an Arranger
~But on it it says "Music Workstation"
Roland is massing up stuff here...
In my point it`s definatly Arranger...
But we`ll see if any Artists will be using it, if yes, than it`s a workstation...

Roland has made "arranger workstations for over ten years"

They are arrangers, and every bit a workstation...the only difference in opinions, are those that don't know how to use them as workstations..

As a music store owner I have always determined that any keybaord which can record songs is considered a workstation. An arranger only would have no sequencer. A synthsizer only would only play sounds but have no sequencer.

I have spent some time with the Korg Pro, but I still have to wait to try the G70...When I spend time with the G70 I will be able to comment more in dept.But let me say right now there are things the Korg can not compete with..My old G1000 and VA7...Don't kid yourself the 62 voice polyphony PRO has a ways to go yet..Many things on the Korg are nice, some are not..they are releasing new updates to the operating system to fix some..

After saying this, the Korg would be my current second choice[before Yamaha], if I decided to replace my arranger[workstation]..
