Michael, you aren't using Yamaha anyway...you seem content with your Roland keyboard, so one might say, you are already "oblivious".
There are a number of great 76 note arrangers available on the market...how come you didn't buy a Korg PA2XPro or a Roland G-70? The users of these products seem very pleased with what they have.
The Audya appears to be another alternative.
Why not stop wasting your time complaining about what is not being made for you by Yamaha, and spend the energy in investigating other lines and manufactures that are making a product that will suit your needs?
Obviously Roland sees no more need to make 76 note arrangers,....are they as guilty as Yamaha?
What if Korg dropped the PA2XPro...would you whine about them as well?
If you think you are beating a dead horse, why do you continue to beat it?
It is dead isn't it?
Why not buy an Audya module and MIDI it to your Roland?
If you waste your time complaining about the things that obviously aren't going to change, then you are also wasting the time you could use to make your own situation more bearable.
All the best to you, too,
Ian
