You bring up a good point Diki. How committed will Ketron be in producing brand new styles that incorporate audio loops into them "after" the Audya ships?? > Now would be a good time for AJ to comment on this if he knows anything and Ketron doesn't demand he keep his lips zipped regarding this subject.

Another HUGE concern is after purchase support from Ketron. If I buy an Audya do I need to ship it back to Italy if it needs repair? I don't think AJ's shop will repair an Audya will they? If it needs to go back to Italy I will be without an arranger keyboard for months on end! And that would be totally unacceptable!! Even if AJ's shop could repair it, that would be a 6,000 mile round trip and probably take at least six weeks (more like 2 months or beyond) before getting it back...

"Ask not what you can do for Ketron, ask what Ketron can do for you!" A simple affirmative reply would be nice. AJ???

Best,
Mike
