Diki,
You are SPOT ON! The arranger market WOULD explode if they started making them with the "modern minded" musician in mind.

The original DJX proves that. As you stated they sold a mother of a "boatload" of DJX's. Then they insulted all the DJX supporters and released that half-assed DJXII. Yes the light should have come on with the original model. I knew many music stores that couldn't keep those things in stock!

The makers certainly can make a good modern style based arranger. However, they're all businesses that see "green". A killer (decent) priced pro-modern style arranger would compete "directly" with the synth market. If Yamaha and other's did this you better bet your arse they'll smack a $3,000 or more price tag on it.
