Now heres the problem, AJ, I don't agree with Daves wants and needs, but I also have a pocket full of cash. Here are my Demands:
1. I don't need no stinkin' speakers. If I want em, I'll buy specialized ones.
2. I already have this in the Tyros
3. Tyros harmonizer works fine for me, but if the TC is better - OK.
4. Under 40 lbs with weighted keys? Besides I want 76 of the buggers, so I don't think this is possible.
5. See # 4
6. I'm agreeing with Dave on this one.
7. Tyros already has this.
8. I have USB mass storage mode on the Tyros and it work Fabulous da'ling!
9. Tyros has this.
10. I agree -- I want my keyboard to order me a beer so that it's ready for break time!
11. Tyros has this doesn't it? Inserts?
12. Got it in the Tyros.
13. Tyros signature feature.
14. Black is very hard to see on stage, just give me a Silver that won't scratch.
15. This isn't a problem for me with the Tyros.
I count 11 out of 15 wants and needs in the Tyros which I already have. Now, can't they come out with a Tyros II with the rest of the missing parts?

11)stereo aux ins for audio player
12)logical button layout, ample footswith jacks
13)multipads like Yamahas(phrases)
14)BLACK housing - no more silver please
15)no glitches when switching parts on/off or turning arranger on/off during playback
** In short(?)this dream unit needs to be more of the SIMPLER features that we've grown up with over the years.
I need reliable drum patterns, solid LH bass sounds, arrangers that can be locked into the SAME drum and bass tones . Fill ins that sound like the same drummer played them. Normal, tight, unflashy, digital rhythm players that allow for self expression from the live artist playing along.
To makle it even simpler:
Keys and harmonizer from PA1x
Size, weight and layout from PSR3k
Power and speakers from kn6500
EQ, effects and rhythms from Yamaha series
Sounds from all the top of the lines
Pricing from Casio
Reliability foprm Roland
*** and the biggie:
Tech support from PRINCE AJ @ Ketron !
Now, stop reading, and go BUILD this beast!!!! I don't care what it costs if it really works !
PORTABLE, POWERFUL, and BEAUTIFUL!
