John,

I hope you don't think I was "getting at you" I was just trying to explain how I feel about the KN7000 in comparison with other keyboards and from your post above, I'm guessing you feel much the same. The Tyros 4 is a great keyboard particularly with regard to ballads and smooches, but for rhythmic dances, I think the the KN7 has the 'edge' on anything else because the rhythms are sharp and clear which are a joy to dance to, unlike some other makes which can sound a bit 'fuzzy' at times, to say the least. That is why I love the KN7 because it makes you want to dance or at least tap your foot to its rhythms.

As you say, we have to look to the future which is exactly why I decided to get the Tyros 4 because it does offer a variety of functions which are not on the KN7 and is particularly good for 'parties/celebration' entertainment. At some of my 'gigs' we've had lots of laughs when using the vocal harmony. I'm sure you know what I mean.
