Though certainly a good cross sectional poll of people's views here, I wouldn't call it objective, as everyone's vote is still subjective.

At this point, I've quickly learned that opinions are like as@holes, everyone's got one, including myself My personal feeling about the Tyros & PSR2000/2100 built in harmonizers are that they're great for live work, but sub par for serious studio recording. If the TC Helicon sounds impressive (to me), is relatively ez to operate, and fits into my particular recording style, then it will be keeper (iregardless of the results of any poll here) and worth the expense. If not, back it goes. I wish life could always be this simple. I'm learning.

On the subject of the Digital Audio Recorder vs Computer (Sonar) thing, I admit I was among the ones who preferred the computer vs DAW in Terry's MP3 test, but the 'real' world doesn't work this way. Now that I own both Sonar 3 and a Korg D1200mkII DAW, I can honestly say that I feel a lot more comfortable 'creating' music on the D1200mkII. As a musician (and not a studio engineer), tweaking and listening for minute frequency differences is not where it's at in the end. I want a piece of equipment that won't get in the way of my creative music making flow, and for now I appreciate the convenience of the D1200mkII. I now look forward to auditioning the TC Helicon Voiceworks as well. - Scott
