I don't about you folks, but from my perspective arrangers are the best buy in town these days--even with a price increase. It wasn't too many years ago when you purchased a top end arranger with 35 styles, a couple dozen voices, limited floppy access, and the price tag was about $2,400. You couldn't do much more than play them unless you had some archaic, complicated software, a maze or midi connections, and the results were marginal at best. Today, the same amount of money will buy one hell of an arranger keyboard, loaded with styles, onboard recording software, incredible storage space, outstanding sounds and in some instances, a hard disk drive. A decade ago, when I purchased my PSR-5700, a package like that would have sold for $10,000 if you were lucky enough to find it.

Thanks for the information George,
