I agree smile , but the problem seems that the manufacturer's arranger & synthesizer divisions are typically run separately and often, even competitively with each other, making the possibility of feature integration perhaps less likely. frown


in fact, I always had the impression that even if I take an arranger and a synth from the same company, they feels like instruments made by totally different companies.

Yesterday I was reading , by chance, a curious post date 2008 or so, where some Motif users were complaining that 'Yamaha got it backward' : they wanted the sounds on the Tyros to be on the Motif.

Even Roland....I have owned a few of their synth workstations before getting a Roland E-60 for a few weeks.

The E-60 felt like an underpriced top class instrument, except for a few naff sounds, like strings and violin. But all the rest, I thought was impressive: the keybed, the excellent piano sound ( believe me I found it much more responsive than software like Pianoteq ), the guitars, and the impressive drum sounds.

It didn't feel like a Roland synth (which I consider them to be excellent instruments too).
Very strange. frown
