Oy veh! That has GOT to be a pain!


If you are trying to make a synth as close to an arranger as possible you will always encounter alot of pains thus why I have an S910 sitting next to it.

From my experience and what I have seen in the industry, the Motif XS/XF offer the closes features to an arranger amongst other Synths on the market today.

The Pads on the Fantom F8 are quite good and you can get very tricky with them but the fact that they don't respond to any chord recognition in realtime is a Pain...

Hopefully as models keep coming amongst the brands, better arranger-type functionality will be included.
