Squeak,
Give Casio a chance...give them a break?? What do you think I've been doing for the last few weeks?...with all of my countless hours and days doing online research,writing & phoning customer support(all of which-by the way,was virtually pointless),because it seems evident that the Tokyo branch of Casio is not releasing any pertinent information to the people of Casio USA.
If anyone has gone through all of the headaches & frustration that I've experienced with Casio support,then they would not want to give Casio a chance either.
All of Casio's speculative horse-sh*t and misdirection has stressed me out & made me raving mad.
Do you honestly think that the WK-7500's sound quality is going to be better or as good than everything else in the $1400 range??
If so,then great...excellent...fantastic,as I will be the first person in this country to own one,if Casio makes a keyboard THAT good!
Understand that if Casio was willing to reveal in their specifications,as to how much WAV ROM was used for the WK-7500 sound set,then that would give me a good indication of well the sounds were produced.
A decent amount of WAV ROM...in the sum of at least 256MB would tell me what I need to know,to surmise the level of sound quality that the WK-7500 has to offer.
Casio does NOT provide this critical information,which is standard information on any pro board website & product page.
So until Casio either reveals this info,or comes up with a sound demo,I will be very skeptical of the WK-7500's quality,but right now,I am really disgusted with Casio's lack of information & I am not prepared to wait another 7 months for this damn keyboard to be released.
In the interim,I am looking to buy another pro board,one of which that has some features/sounds that my Korg M3 does not have.
Perhaps one day,when & if Casio gets their act together,I just may buy a Casio again,but thus far,things are not shaping up well at all,for what I want to add to my studio.
