Yes, they know what they're doing, just like Roland do

...they're both big companies, with a lot of people in between what was designed or conceived, and what ends up on the product.
Personally, I prefer the SA1 voices, as they naturally decay when held with the sustain pedal....SA2 hold....no decay.
I'm glad the S910 has a lot more SA1 voices....I'm not disappointed there are no SA2...I wasn't really expecting them.
Can't imagine selling a $4500 instrument with 11 SA2, and then come out with a $1749 arranger with nearly as many....kind of like shootin' yerself in the foot, don't ya think?
I believe the S910 is what the S900 should have been.
