Not having a dig, Fran, but wouldn't two minutes reading the E-60 brochure have made it apparent that the instrument did not have these features, and that it would therefore not meet your personal requirements?

I wouldn't have thought that you needed to go to all the trouble of buying one for these points not to be blinding obvious.

As a comparison, I cannot get on with pitch and mod wheels, much prefering a lever instead. As a result, a Tyros will never be on my shopping list as, despite its many undoubted vitues, I know I will never get on with its pitch wheel. I don't see much point in buying one just to confirm what I already know.

When you start looking at a potential new instrument, don't you have a list of 'must have' features to check against? If you did, surely the E-60 would have failed to pass the check list.
