Man I just went through looking for a workstation for 2 months....My budget was $1000

I played everything, considered arrangers, checked reviews day & night...

I finally settled on a "used" Korg Triton Extreme 76 keys for $900...It's fabulous...Man what a machine

That aside I personally didn't like the feel of the JUNO G keys...Felt a little "toyish" for my taste...Sequencer has limitations though it has 4 audio tracks you can record into the sequencer (eg.acoustic guitar/bass)which in that price range is great...Was gonna get one till I looked a little further & found the EXTREME

The Korg TR 61 felt better and I think sounds better than the JUNO G...You can get that for about $800 if you stick to your guns....I think you can get the Juno for close to that too if you refuse to pay more at GC...

I personally would've bought the TR 61 if I didn't find this "used" EXTREME 76 for $900...But to me they were both just a tad lower than what I was looking for...More like a "semi-pro" workstation

Here's an insider tip from someone who has done his homework...The Fantom X is on its way out and will drop significantly in price in the next few months...look for a MAJOR price drop...Roland figures it should end up in the $1300-$1400 dollar range maybe less...

Might be worth the 2 month wait..

Just a thought........
