Actually, Donny hasn't bought a BK-5. He's 'rented' one to try it out. He won't have BOUGHT it until he still has it three months from now!

I think Donny may find the E50 he got from me is better in many ways than the BK5!
Don't forget, arrangers are not only our work tools, but also our hobbies and passions! It's OK to experiment.

Don you are right to some extent...The E50 edge is the touch screen, larger lyric view,dedicated buttons (easier stage operation), sequencer, and no glitch reading common system exclusive messages while using make up tools (my pet peave with BK5)..

What he will be thrilled about the BK5...onboard EQ...better sound, great styles, and the best media player currently on the market...and 16 pound package...oh yea...it is black...
