After many posts...questions...etc...i'm still undecided on which one to get. Hope all here have the patience to listen and help (much needed) my buying process.

Just a recap: I have a Technics KN6000,which currently have intermitten composer problem due to some nimrod dropped a heavy object in the middle of the board when I brought it from overseas . Now, while I'm thinking of spending more money fixing it, I'm thinking of getting a second keyboard (or perhaps if I can sell the 6000, just a pure replacement). I've been considering three different keyboards: KN7k, Tyros, and last but not least Korg Triton Studio.

Tyros-Haven't seen or played the keyboard in person...nobody here has it..so I can't say much about it..for 3000 bucks..hhmh...hard sell. (especially some 9000 Pro/9000 owners have mentioned to me, to consider the 9000/pro instead of the Tyros for a SIGNIFICANTLY reduced price).

Triton Studio, got some nice sounds, onboard drum patterns, and stuff....but when I went to guitar center today and tried it, DAAAANG...that thing is so hard to program even just to record the RPPR or the cue list...(technics' have succesfully spoiled me these past few years). The salesperson didn't help much either, kept showing me how cool the sequencer was..I was like.."I know..I know..but that's NOT what I want..show me the cue list, or the RPPR function.." he couldn't do it (and didn't even try even though I have the manual right there...he wasn't ready to make a quick $2700 sale that minute perhaps). I think the other salesperson told me.."take the keyboard...30 days later you can return it if you don't like it." Not sure about their return policy, I declined...I'll post another message about the Triton Studio (for the Triton owners).


KN7000-(Scott, friend..ha.ha..we've gone through this chat before), the "composer" feature. This is what keeps me from moving on to different brand, although I'm ready to do so...but I'm not ready to spend $3000 for the KN...plus, I don't wanna own TWO KNs at the same time....


HEEEELP!
