After discussions in another thread, the following occurred to me

The Tyros & Yamaha series of arrangers + Korg, Roland and Ketron were developed (Sounds, styles, features etc.) mainly in the UK, Germany, Italy and Asia, with specialist versions being made for certain smaller markets

There have also been plenty of 3rd party sounds and styles developed for these instruments from many countries around the world.

As far as I am aware however, there has only been minimal input from the US, which I find quite amazing considering the amount of musical diversity over there. (There are stacks of sounds, loops and features developed by the US for Workstations and computer based music systems)

Does anybody know why? As it seems strange that musicians in the US don’t produce US styles and sounds for them, when the rest of the world is pretty prolific in doing so

Curious
