I can only say that all the local Guitar Center stores here in the San Francisco Bay area (3) who only a few short years ago not only never stocked mid-top level arrangers, but never heard of them, are now far more aware of & knowledgeable about them, in part because they're finally featured & reviewed 'highly' in Keyboard & Electronic Musician magazines, which in turn generates increased buying public respect & interest for arrangers as a legitimate keyboard musician's pro music making tool as well. Talking to quite a few pro keyboardists who play in live Bands around the Bay Area, appear now to have greater respect for and now adding to or turning to an arranger vs workstation for their music production. I believe that the line between arrangers & workstations is changing and will eventually merged into one. I don't really know, but my guess is that the next generation Yamaha Tyros2/Motif will be a merging of the unique workstation features of the Motif with the arranger features (including SA voices) of Tyros2. Of course, only time will tell. - Scott
