I suppose many of us could be in the same position if Korg and Yamaha also stopped top range arranger production.

And, in all seriousness, I would be very content staying with my Tyros4, and with what I feel is Yamaha's best TOTL to date.

Is it perfect? Nope, but pretty darn close, in my opinion, and much like those who fell in love with the G-70, I am more than happy with my choice of arranger.

As it has been said many times on SZ, "if it meets your specific needs, who cares how old it is, or, who makes it."

And, as much as I tease you, Fran, about your "old" G-70, I do admire you for the fact that you have found, and stuck with, the instrument that best meets your needs.

I honestly would be very surprised to see another TOTL arranger from Roland, but, I suppose anything is possible.
