I listened to all the youtube videos...again..

Is "yuk" a word?

If this is what you want to use..go buy it...Save the box...if you use it live for any extent of time...you will be bored at best...

This is a workstation..pure and simple..it plays "arps"......Spend $800 on a Juno G or $1,100 on a Juno stage....and get it out of your system..at a fraction of the cost..

Using the Motif as your backing instrument, is not for me....If it works for you..fine..

I can't see the Motif being used this way...not when the same company makes an arranger...There is not a single benefit for me doing so..

The vast majority of people I know that work with workstations..live...just misunderstand the advantages an arranger has over the workstation...

and yes..I have owned many "workstations" from Roland , Korg and Yamaha...

The only "workstation" that qualifies as an arranger too..is my MediaStation..
