Hip Hop is about the sounds. They're changing everyday. That's why I have always said that PSR's don't work well for Hip Hop, Rap,and R&B... They lack the deep synth sounds you find on something like a Trtion or Motif. Plus the sequencers on arrangers are not capable of recording in a way that is essential to Hip Hop and that's using pattern chaining.
SqueakI agree with you that arrangers generally don’t have the deep synth sounds that hip hop require. That’s why any keyboard I get or use must have the capability and memory to edit and or load new sounds ( i.e genesys and maybe in the future mediastation).
I have found that arrangers make good pattern creators. When creating a new style and using the variations and fills and intros I use them for different parts of the song. Then I would record it real-time to the keyboard’s sequencer using the styles.
