I have to agree with you there Pro. I think Yamaha was out of line requesting the pics to be removed. What the hell happened to free speach? Obviously this keyboard was demoed somewhere and pics surfaced. It doesn't make any sense to me.

A good example of how Yammie acted like "jerks" in this is MotorTrend magazine. I've read that magazine many times and seen snapshot photos of the next SUV or Sedan, or Sports Car where the photographer caught a sneak peek of the vehicle being tested. GM, Ford, and other makers don't make them remove their pics from the magazines (and these are publicitations in the millions).

The Zone has been about a lot of other stuff not related to arrangers. I too am at fault for it as well. The addition of the "Bar" by Nigel was a good idea in my opinion. It's a good place to talk about everything else. I too think that there hasn't been much hooplaaa about arrangers lately. Roland's G-70 (from what I've read on the Zond) fell short with reviewers. Plus Yammie balling out on the next Tyros seems to have pissed off a lot of dedicated Yamaha fans as well.
