The sequencers in both are rather good compared to previous arranger models. The 2000's has much better resolution ( 1920 ppq vs 384 for the PA80 ), but I actually find the PA80's to be easier to use and understand than the 2000s.

Thanks Bluezplayer,

Doesn't the PA 80 have dual sequencers, up to 40 tracks. I have demo-ed the PSR 2000 and the PA 80 and also feel the PA 80 sounds are superior not to mention chord recognition. I have not demo-ed the VA series or the Technics 6500, or any ketron boards which I would like to, but they are not available anywhere near me. I demoed the 9000 Pro and no offense to anyone, but the 2000 sounds the same, the PA 80 has better sounds; sorry!
That is my opinion. Only time can give someone a true sense of comparison, but first impressions do count, and with sound your first impression is the one that counts, because if you own a board and play it day after day you learn to like the sounds and stand by it being the best sounding, the first time you hear 3 or 4 different boards is the only time your ears won't play favorites.
