I think it is one thing for forum members to post here in less than perfect English (and often very entertaining
!), but Domenik makes a huge mistake, and one that he has been advised against in the past, here, by posting as a manufacturer's representative here in less than perfect English.

For God's sake, Domenik, hire someone who speaks English well, and also knows how to communicate with potential CUSTOMERS......... and don't post another word here!

Domenik has, in the past, probably done more damage to Lionstracs by posting his poorly worded claims (and remember the 'free Mediastation for style development debacle?) than a buggy OS and incomplete feature set........

We all realize the POTENTIAL of these software-based instruments, but no-one is going to dive off this very expensive cliff until you can prove that A), they are more stable and crash-free than hardware arrangers from the big 3, and B), they are more cost effective than the competition. I haven't heard of either, yet........

And, as Roland and others are finding to their cost, it doesn't matter what whizz-bang feature, or jaw-dropping sounds you have on-board, if the STYLES that it comes with don't make Tyros2 owners all commit hari-kari out of jealousy, you are fighting an uphill battle. Few arranger players (from what I read here) really want to spend a whole bunch of time tweaking a VERY complicated keyboard to sound good. The whole point of arrangers is, you take them out of the box and start playing, in front of friends or customers, IMMEDIATELY. And it had damn well better sound good (and not crash!) or you are out of a job or lose all your friends!!

I know how hard it is to get R&D money in this economy, especially with how small the keyboard market is (compared to laptops or MP3 players, for instance), but selling a product before it's ready can come back to bite you in the ass, as you are seeing here.

Come back and wow us all when it's ready......... and hire a REAL PR man..........
