Old Trick? Hmmmmmmmmm..... seems like a simple thing to to no trickery there Scotty...if its allowed on the forum its my prerogative as a poster to edit or delete my posts as I see fit.......IMO. Thoughts sometimes are posted in error & need to be edited or deleted no big deal.....people can surly get the gist of the topic from the subject title.…

Ok Donny, I acknowledge you like the Midjay because it "kicks butt", of which I assume means having that classic Ketron "in your face" punchy sound, but why don't you be more specific about the ways the the Midjay is "better sounding" than the competition.

Scott once again, The Midjay is just a Tool, I make it sound better then the competition thru editing, tweaking playing abilities, performance experience as a professional keyboard musician/singer...Im not ashamed to say it my friend ! I dont care what your using Tyros, Pax, G70 etc etc if you aint got the talent or the goods it aint going to sound good no matter how many gizmos, gadgets, these Kbs have on board & if you can prove me wrong Please do so at your convenience.


Ok Donny, we all know you didn't specifically purchase the Midjay for your CD recording project alone. Why don't you be candidly honest and tell us why you now SUDDENLY t want to sell it, and go back to Yamaha(?), especially considering the FACT you spent so MANY MONTHS bashing Tyros2, and recommending the Midjay as so much better. Your continuous 'back & forth' fickleness really promotes confusion, especially to 'new members' who look to us senior members & pros here for keyboard brand/model purchase guidance.

Scott there were many reasons I purchased a MJ....recording was the biggest decision.....the rest was using it in my act on stage due to its superb sound that we all know Ketron products are capable of.
Its flexibility is unsurpassed IMO.
As for guidance from us pros on purchasing an arranger KB for newbies ....I always tell them to go play them first,do not listen to all the different mine is better then yours senarios which confuse a potential buyer even more or post some of your tunes so we can see & hear what level your at and get an idea of what someone is looking for with their specific needs in an arraner KB.....Finicky? hahahahah again, my prerogative my friend....I switch gear, buy,& perform with many tools & use them on stage, whatever it takes to complete the job successfully so that my clients, & audience are happy. Bashing Tyros2? I think its a fine instrument in the RIGHT hands......but it could also be the worst instument in the WRONG hands for sure..............can I perform with one? yes....would I buy one? possibly, does it lack a few things that I personally need to perform on stage and would like to see included maybe in future models? yes, did I bash it when it was released? yes, I also apologized for that somewhere in another post for jumping the gun. Now Scott, I hope I answered some of your questions Im a busy man & Im off to a gig now....I'll check back later to kibitz with you again tonight...I guess I might have to buy a TYROS 2 and really prove what Im talking about once & for all....its not out of the question in the near future

I myself remain extremely happy performing with my Tyros2 keyboard, irregardless of the months of unrelentless anti-Tyros2 teasing & taunting you and Fran Carango aimed at me & other Tyros2 enthusiasts here, and of which regrettably drove valuable contributing Synthzone members: Roel Dejonge, Heikki Kahola (theWolf), Chico Brasil, and Notlos (Dirk Baert), to leave this forum altogether.
Ok. Thanks for letting me blow off steam.
Scott

Scott if they choose to leave ....Oh well its their loss.....this is a public forum where SZ members offer their opinions good or bad on many topics......this is real life not Never Never Land..if they chose to leave its their prerogative, if they want everyone to agree and always love a certain product that aint gonna happen either, you wanna blame me fine .......no sweat off my back...do your sometimes annoying posts bother me ? No way .....I kind of find it amusing & it gives me a reason to post more....maybe someday I will surpass your posting record
