Yes, I was just ribbing you a bit. Actually, I find both of those Roland's pretty amazing value for money, at those featherweight prices.
And, to be honest, I think I misdirected it at you, when it should really have been to Dennis, who would like remote control options on a sub-$900 arranger that unfortunately don't exist on even TOTL ones!
Sorry if I failed to get my intentions clear....Where the f#@k did that come from!!! I never said anything of the sort!!!
I made no mention of "wanting" any function. I was pointing out the serious lack of BASIC functions on the GW and the Prelude.
I said simply that there was no NTA function and that you cannot change patches in the styles.
These functions that you seem to think are "higher functions" and therefore should not be on a "budget" keyboard are on pretty much EVERY other arranger regardless of price.
Oh and out here the GW7 is a + $2000 keyboard.
