That's true in Japan high end arrangers aren't available. I think the Psr and Tyros line have the Yamaha organs engine in a different console. I've made a 3 manual organ out of a pair of arrangers (a Psr 900 and a Korg Pa500) a MS for Vsts and a Pk5 pedal. The Korg is a very good controller and soundsource but the Yamaha is amazingly easy converted into an organ and has special features specifically designed for that purpose such as controlling the bass line of the style independently from the chord played by using the pedals.
Actually a 2 manual arranger IS an organ without pedals. The advantage of using arrangers to make an organ is that I keep upgrading it and using the best from different manufacturers.
