Checkout these outsanding trad style arranger keyboard performances
on Yamaha Tyros 4 (and including Roland G70 in the 2nd clip) Wow!
performed by Rico, who resides in the Netherlands.
He also does an impressive Elvis "Love Me Tender" vocal Impersonation.

Nice find Scott, that G70 sounds nice, in fact never heard it played like that before, performing dog as well, 3 in 1.

Donny, usually finds these little nuggetts for us, you are moving up the ranking Scott, keep them coming, nice to see what people have got double stacked.

Great music on both T4 and G70. Inspires me to try a couple of things. I have room for a tiny little keyboard such as the little Korg in my setup. It would be great to have a second lead sound to switch to instantly.
Also great Elvis song. Inspires me to learn to sing.

Don,

Wurlitzer put a little 3rd KB in the top of one of thier organs, a long time ago, I have a paper round then.

I also had one on my LAST organ, a big old Yamaha FS500.
It weighed more than all my ex-wives but together.

yamaha has many organs with a 3rd small keyboard in it... like FS70, FX20 or D85, but i never could find a single youtube video where they actually used the small keys...







So if you actually want 3 mannuals choose an organ with 76x61x61 fullblown keys, and not something with subpar small keys.



or maybe even with 4 real manuals




Point is... 2 or 3 mannuals gives you so much more freedom to play.... Its not without a reason that people like Alan McPike still use 3 keyboards in their setup.



Personally i really love this dutch chap playing 2 great arrangers... 2 different brands allways add more character then 2 instruments of the same brand.

Another good example with T4 in it comes from Petry giles

quote Bachus on adding a Korg Micro : (February 11th)

" ....I never understood people with 2 arrangers...
If you needed anything to a PA3X, it would be a Solosynth/Pro workstation/PC running VST, but not a 2nd arranger... because almost all styles can be converted and adjusted to your own arranger....... "

Make up your mind son !!

There is a small difference between 2 arrangers..... and 2 keyboards...

I know where you are comming from, in europe/Holland/Germany people call arrangers also Keyboards...

But since this is a US forum... Keyboard stands for anything with white and black keys on it... I.e. Arrangers/synths/E-pianos..

So where i am not a fan of 2 arrangerkeyboards in a single setup, atleast 2 keyboards (preferrably 88 weighted and 76 synthkey action) are a must for me.

I hope this clears the misunderstanding....


(on top of that, none of the 3 keyboards Allan is using is an Arranger)



And on top of that , i am not your son...

In certain parts of the U.S., particularly the South, we often call other guys "son". It's a colloquialism, I suppose, and used in an atmosphere of friendship.
Country music legend Jerry Reed, for one, called everybody "son".
It's easy to forget we are in a group with so many diverse languages and that to many English is certainly not their language of choice.
I am in awe of people who speak a second or third language. I've been trying to learn Spanish, but it has been slow progress.
I am fluent in Pig Latin though.
