when I brought up modules I made it a point to explain that the need for a dedicated midi controller was not really important to most of the customers who would buy a module from me. In my store, it is more the person with a digital piano who usually comes in and I can sell a module to. I also explained to Yamaha that as I am sure they are aware, there are so few modules to choose from today and that adding one to their line would be a real advantage for them.
I also keep telling them that a 76 key model with the engine of the PSR910 that could sell in the $2,000.00 range would surely attract a lot of customers.
You might also like to know that the German market is the single largest buyer of arranger keyboards in the world and what the German player wants in a keyboard often influences what the manufactures come out with.
