Hi squeak,

you know I am right with you here. I tried a lot of arrangers in terms of: Does it have contemporary styles and the sound it needs for them. The only arranger I found suitable was the pa1x. Lots of contemporary music is built up by putting together waves and arrangers can only copy a feeling of this kind of loop music but not really catch it. Most hiphop and R?Bstuff sounds ridicu8ölous anyway on an aaranger. What I found most annoying is that all the arranger keyboard companies are trying to fit the same bill. Is it really so different - country styles from korgt or roland? Not really! Why the hell don´t they offer keyboards for different target groups - more contemporary (with arp functions) and more traditional. They are all heading in the same direction and this is quite boring!

my 2 c.

Best regards

Heinrich
