There are something that you would never expect a Nation to be famous for , take Australia, electronics , no and they would be the first to admit they are not, I work with PC based Building Management System all day, there is one company the USA that export them to the UK and frankly they are crap. I don’t know what the answer is with Ketron, there are problems and we cannot deny that, it is what people will accept, it’s the distribution and dealership that don’t help and small numbers selling across the USA can have a dealer a 1000 miles from the customer. This being the case Ketron should know their market and make provision for it. There will be people like DonM and other that will have no problem, I did at first, then it went OK, now it’s playing up like others.
I have no doubt if I bought a MS from Dom and things went wrong I would have the same problem, there are not enough numbers of MS out there to sample problems off yet , and MS is probably just one step down from Ketron.
I don’t know where this will all end, the SD1+ had loads of problems and here we are 2 KBs later, SSDD.

PS the two chaps in the photo above surrounded by Ketrons look as happy as pigs in **** !

The greatest keyoards come from Italy, and they are years ahead, at the present time what is better than the Audya? nothing! ten years ago what was ahead of everyone? GEM WK8 made in Italy, not sure on the specs I can find them for you so you can compare,or how about ROLAND from the G70 and down the line all from Italy. The MS is a great keyboard in the hands of a person that starts with an almost blank slate and has the hardware to make a masterpiece that no other hardware based synth has to date.
