On stage...in a group you are more than likely going to want a full PRO synth.

1) In your face sound to cut through the mix
2) FULL MIDI implementation
3) more than 61 keys (usually)
4) The arranger feature would just be in the way
5) PRO build because these baby's take a lot of ause
6) Support for the PRO instuments is superb
7) Just the way a PRO synth works suits the stage environment (patches, combies ect)

That sure doesn't mean it's not done, but not often.
That also does not mean there are not some great and even better in some cases sounds on an attanger than PRO board. But that's a small exception.

So why is the T1, T2, T3 PA, G-70 ect. more expensive..they sell a lot more PRO synthes than arrangers.

It's a shame...usually you can't even hear what te keyboard player is doing beacause of all the LOUD distotion guitars!
