I have to agree with you there.... I think keyboard makers are using the term "workstation" a little loosely today. Roland doesn't even list this as one of their arranger either..., nor did they with the GW-7. Both models are under the synth section on Roland's site.

Diki.., I know you're going to say they packed a lot into it, and "hey it's only $895".., but there sure as hell are a few things the GW doesn't do that at nearly $900 it SHOULD do.

The GW has some good features, but it's far from a workstation. The limited style editing and extremely basic seq support this. You shouldn't have to hook up to a sofware seq to get the "workstation" features. Those should already be built in.
