Korg did well with the PA1x as it came in 2 versions, 61 notes and inbuilt speakers, with options for more advanced users, and 76 notes without speakers with most options fitted, thus giving the user the choice. (The board�s internals were the same)
The Pro was also more expensive, however it still sold well, but as would be expected it was outsold by the standard 61 note version.
I presume they will also do the same with the PA2x as otherwise they will probably loose quite a few sales. (And I can�t see Korg making that mistake)
When it comes to Yamaha however, the type of users that buy most of them, have no interest in Pro versions, a point that seems to be ignored by those that say they should build a 76 note version. (Its also interesting to note how they ignore my posts about what world dealers say about the type of Yamahas they could sell (Talk about head in the sand)
Take it from the dealers, take it from users, take it from Yamaha, take it from the Yamaha Forums, Yamaha users are NOT interested in a 76 note arranger.
Not difficult to grasp
