Roland and Casio...and call it Rolio.

Roland sounds and OS with the dramatic increase in build quality that Casio will bring.

Chord recognition upgraded to include not only an an even more simplified single finger mode, but a new "all thumbs" mode as well.

Rolio...available at a Wal-Mart or Canadian Tire store near you.

I'm going to play nay-sayer, of course....!

I don't want to see ANY of them combine..... Fewer manufacturers mean fewer choices. I approve of them stealing each other's good ideas, though (unless they can patent them!).

Everybody here has a different reason for why THEIR arranger is the best FOR THEM.....

Rather than combine manufacturers, let's combine FEATURES...... here's a quote from a post I wrote a couple of days ago about my perfect arranger
________________________________________________________

"Now if I could combine the T2's SA and Mega voices, Break/Fill, and multi pads with the Korg's detailed voice editing and sample import, TC Helion and very contemporary drum samples, with the G70's V-Drums and GrandX piano patch, VK-series B3 sim, OS and layout, and of course the action(!), add in the MS's and Wersi's VSTi ability and sample RAM speed loading, wrap it up in a composite shell to bring the total weight down to about 25lbs, and top it of with a dollop of Chord Sequencer features, well, THEN i probably wouldn't have a thing to post about, I'd be too busy playing!
_______________________________________________________

What's YOURS......?

The more we talk about these kinds of things, the more likely the industry is going to sit up and take notice.

An arranger is just a tool. What matters is what you build with it..!

I have a feeling you would think of something else and would still be posting.

Dan,

What is kind of interesting, is that Ketron lost some of their engineers to Korg awhile back


Maybe you are confusing Ketron with Gem?
