But one think we are always forgetting is that if Yamaha does not make 76 key arrangers, and Korg, Roland, MS and Audya does, can we really say that there is no market?
If the PSR S910 was only made as a 76 key and was compact and not heavy, does any reasonable person really think that sales would not be the same?
If Korg, Roland, MS and Ketron are making 76 key arrangers, why not Yamaha?
O and if you are going to say “look at the sales for those keyboards” is it because they are 76 key arrangers?
The fact is there is evidence to the contrary that there is no market for a 76 key arranger with Ketron, Korg, Roland and MS making them.
If Yamaha just ask people if they want a 76 key arranger, the answer would probably be know. Because most people associate 76 keys with being big and heavy.
Now if you ask if a keyboard with sounds and styles like the PSR S910 had 76 keys, was around 30LBS, and was one or two inches more than the S910, and there was no 61 key option, would that prevent people from buying it.
Research is all in the way you ask the question.
