I've always said people too often get caught up in the hype and waste all that money on the "next best thing" thinking it's going to make them sound better and they've barely scratched the surface of the keyboard they already have.

So many of you guys have arranger power-houses under your fingers and don't even realize it.., or you do but are too stubborn to explore your keyboard beyond the power button and the presets. So much can be done with today's arrangers. Even the lower end such as the PSR-S700.

YOU are the one who makes the arranger sing.., the board doesn't play you..., YOU play it! Spend more time practicing your own chops and exploring your keyboards features, learning new things, and you just may save yourself a crap load of money down the line.

I often find that the players here don't actually outgrow their arrangers. Rather due to their unwillingness to explore their current board.., they just get bored playing their same routine with the same presets after while. Then drop all that money on a new model to play the same routine on it.., yet not outgrowing that board either. Then repeat the same process over and over.
