I've certainly thought about it, but whenever I've demoed arrangers in stores, they didn't sound quite as realistic and professional as my Motif XF. It was both the quality and the quantity of the sounds. I'm sure the effects were not as good, either. Plus, I figured that the performances, which are made up of arpeggios, kind of worked like an arranger's styles. With 7,881 arps, the combinations are almost limitless, which are less confining and more personalized than an arranger's styles. Not to mention all the real-time controls, sliders, etc. Having said that, I still crave an arranger where you can just sit and play, having up to 8 parts per style, versus 3 arps plus the main melody voice.

The Tyros 4 was on top of my buying list at the time (2012), but at the last moment, I just couldn't justify spending that kind of money on my hobby, even though my wife gave me her blessings. So, I bought the Motif XF, with the intent on getting an arranger at some later date.

Hopefully, my wife has a few more blessings for me soon!
