Donny. What had me so baffled is that you'd spent so much "time and energy" actively promoting the Ketron Midjay as the best 'live stage' arranger keyboard solution out there above the competition, as well as telling me that I really should've purchased the Ketron Midjay instead of the T2, yet at the same time, emphasizing that it's one's keyboard chops, and entertainer skills that truly count most. That being the case, I'd expected your relatively new Midjay with 76 note Roland kb controller to more than satisfy your live performance needs for a long time to come. Donny: Exactly what is it about your Midjay you're not completely satisfied with? What are you hoping to get from Tyros/Tyros2 that you're not getting from your Midjay setup now? As I'm sure everyone here would predict, I continue to enjoy playing & recommend the Tyros2, but Donny, I wouldn't want YOU to purchase one, and then a month later, find something you don't like about it too. I really think you need to do some deep soul searching to find out the real reason you're suddenly wanting to switch keyboards now, because as you said yourself, no keyboard can cover for musicianship talent, chops, and entertainment skills, of which are only gained thru blood sweat & practice, and experience (or paying one's dues as they say). Just my thoughts from one pro musician buddy to another. Wishing you the best of luck in whatever you decide. - Scott [This message has been edited by Scottyee (edited 04-28-2006).]

Scott please dont have any sleepless nights over my reasons & personal choices wih my gear, There are more important things to worry about in this world. As for the Midjay ......as I have said many times before the MJ is an awesome sounding Killer Module........it is a multi funtional, multi faceted piece of gear to accomlish many purposes in the performance of musical entertainment. As I also asaid many times it os not a full fledged arranger, it does however have many basic arranger functions but not enoiugh for me to perform at my full potential as Im used to...... I will always recomend it & tout is as such to anyones who asks.....it does a superb job in the right hands & in the right situations. As you well know I have been a Yamaha player for years in the past using many of their KBs on stage, I have also used many other brands too with much success.......again talent & experience makes it that way much of the time. Ive been playing arranger KB's since day one professionally, I have always switched, sold, traded, rebought the same model etc etc ....no big deal thats just me, bored? upgraded models? who knows when I feel the need I go for it. TYROS 2 ? who knows maybe I'll pick one up and work with it, maybe I'll like it, maybe I'll dump it after a week? who knows?......decisions on gear take time in this business, you'll never know if you like it totaly unless you work with it. Scott you do your thing on stage & I do mine in a totaly different way there is no right or wrong....In the end its just either a Good Sound performance or Not! Ive heard the T2 demos, seen the videos,& they do sound impressive......but will they make me happy for my needs on stage ? I wont know unless I try it..... hang in there Scotty me boy........ I'll surly keep you posted if & when I get a T2 this way we could brainstorm as Two pros should correct?
