Hi Caasp,
unfortunately for me there really hasn't been anything new or exciting as far as keyboards go. Admittedly they keep getting better with each new model. More functions, better sounds, more polyphony etc
Let's face it, once you've owned a prior model , you pretty much know what you're doing.
I've noticed a lot more activity when a new arranger is released or when one of the music shows is nearing.

I found it a bit odd also that styles etc are rarely discussed. One can only conclude members are happy with what they've got, be it the onboard styles or converted styles. The issue of creating them is rarely brought up.

My focus has now shifted from hardware arranger to software arranger ( thanks to Frank & Bluzeplayer).
I was using OMB software as a style creation/editing tool well before it ever occurred to me to use it as an arranger.

best wishes
Rikki
