I'm completely with you on that, Ian... Only problem starts when I get clients that do music less 'boilerplate' than country or legacy rock styles. Then it's a bloody nightmare, watching them roll their eyes when I try different arranger styles on the tune!
That's when I reach for the Triton, and the StylusRMX loops, and the BFD.
The day they make an arranger that sounds like THOSE will be the day the arranger industry revives
