How clever of you!



I wouldn't say "clever"..."accurate" would be a better description.

Can we stop attacking each other?

Diki went over first(bashing Yammy or Ian? I dunno )but Ian came up with "eunuch" thing so I don't know who deserves the blame.

The facts are -Yammy's VH and hardware is not as good as Roland

Yammy's most styles and some sounds ,over all versatility as portable arranger for most western OMBs(price/performance ratio) is ahead of Roland , not to mention 3 rd party styles(Roland used to be good too).


so yes Yammy's mid and TOTL arranger sales are better than Roland.

Korg's WS sales are better than Yammy and Roland (at least before M3).


Peace.

Diki we need you for G70 in depth (more so than Fran).

Ian we also need a Yammy (insider or not) guy for many reasons.


Peace ,again.

BTW I still like PA 588 's look.

Jamman, no critics were harmed in the creation of these posts.

Diki and I were merely having a friendly banter...I think he's a great guy, and I always enjoy his posts, and even though he does get a tad overly enthusiastic sometimes with his criticisms...he bashes Roland and Korg with equal ebullience.

I could have used the word "unique" instead of "eunuch" but the former didn't have the same impotency as the latter.

I always enjoy your posts as well, and find your unbiased views quite refreshing.

Competition always improves the breed....no doubt about it...and this will be born out in the next crop of arrangers.

Ian

PS...I kinda like the appearance of the PA-588 as well...it's got a cool retro look about it.
