I wonder about the sound thing - to me anyone having any of the current arranger keyboards complaining about the sound simply does not know his/her keyboard. If you know the sound you want, then you must take the time to learn how to get it on your keyboard. Having said that, however, I must say I think it is easier and more possible on the current Korgs.

Donny, you could always utilize the video out feature and use an RGB monitor, or fire it into your laptop, either of which will allow you to select any screen size, quality and position you desire. For me it's not a problem, and when I do need lyrics that are not stored in my head, I use the laptop, which is easily accessed via my hidden mouse. I sincerely believe that the S-950 will be the last arranger keyboard I will ever purchase. If I get two more years out of my body parts and can continue to perform for that much longer, I'll be a happy sailor.

Most likely a better option is to use a 10" tablet,
iPad or Android only for their bright displays,
battery longevity and lightness....

Nice Rig Col good luck with it...but I'm talking using a KB also.

PS, can you use the "Video Out" of the S950 with a 10" tablet?...
instead of a laptop somehow confused1

Not as far as I know Donny, the video out on the S950 is for a television the inputs on most tablets are micro-usb and possibly HDMI the tablets don't support PAL and VGA.

You're right, Col. The tablets don't support that type of video.
