I want to add my 2 cents also, although I have commented many times on GEM products I want to say that the WK8 was more than 10 years ahead of its time only imitated by many others, were can I begin? lighted buttons for all the functions? 3D sound processor? 200,000 note sequencer? Akai playback for sounds? VLSI chip technology and much more if you dig deeper into the keyboard, I still own the WK8 and turn in on once and a while or sometimes take it on a few gigs, and I was also looking into a new product from GEM but I guess everything today evolves around money and not the passion of a family owned business and their pride to bring out special and innovative products to the musician.
