I first saw an arranger keyboard at a workshop for praise bands given by Maranatha Music, a contemporary Christian music publishing company. They had a Roland rep there and he had a G 800. This was about 10 years ago. He demonstrated to the group that the keyboard could be used as a whole band. At the time I was doing my OMB with left hand bass, right hand playing and a drum machine. I went to my local music dealer and of course he didn't have one so I had him order it for me. It forever changed the way I do things. The demo is the way to go. I used to demonstrate organs in the old days and that really worked. People would get all excited and buy it on the spot. It would be nice to see them catch on here.
