What some people seem to forget is that a module created today should not and can not be the same type of module created yesterday.
Interactive keyboards, arrangers or what ever you want to call keyboards that make one person sound like a band are much different from 15 years ago.

OMB gigs are coming more the norm and economically may be a necessary thing for keyboardist. So why not now for an arranger manufacturer to create and market an arranger module? With a module, the manufacturer is not ask the consumer to do away with their favorite arranger, but they are saying add me to your rig.

Imagine some one with a G70 who may want the Korg sounds but not able to buy a TOTL Korg arranger.

If Korg had a module, they could add that to their rig and if they like, when Korg does make the next TOTL arranger it would be a top contender.

And the same would be true if someone has the Korg PA2x and Roland made a module.

Remember with an arranger module, the manufacturer would not be reinventing the Wheel. It would be the same cost as adding a low-end arranger.

If the big three don’t do it, may be Casio would think about getting in to the professional market by starting with an arranger module.
