Diki: “Well, first of all, let us address Genesys, who never found a logical argument he couldn't completely miss the point of...
WS's and arrangers are BOTH used by people for completely different tasks, often completely exclusively. In other words the sales of arrangers and WS's do not compete, because they don't do the same thing. But BOTH of them compete and dominate open keyboard sales, when asked to do the same thing. Clearer now?”

Apparently you have not been following the progression of the posts.
And, you really don’t understand the market for an open keyboard.
The market is not for the home user who is just content to have a cheap Yamaha PSR S900 or just a Roland G70.
The market is for the gigging person who have an arranger like the Motif xs and also has computer software and VSTs.

And, If you think WS and arrangers do not compete, you better have a talk with Yamaha.

People have been using workstations for years and compared to arrangers they are not the easiest things to operate on a live gig. Unless you have actual proof and not conjecture that open keyboards are much more difficult to use that workstations, then…..
