I agree 100% with your post.
Before to buy 9000Pro I tried Sd1 for one week:good voices,styles...excellent for a superb demontration but for my day/day gigs I think that 9000Pro is the best,because I must to evaluate this topics.
1-Easy operation.
2-Clean styles.
3-Diferent buttons for each function.
4-A lot of styles available.
5-Ergonomic pitch and mod . wheels.
6-Gooseneck lamps.
7-Multi function dial.
As bossa nova player, I must say that Ketron Bossas are very weak.Who made a bossa style with maracas don't know Tom Jobim pieces...
