I think it is crazy that any brands separate workstations from arrangers. Supporting styles is simply an addition of a little more ROM space. There is no reason Yamaha couldn't introduce a Montage that is also an arranger. Then they could sell it to all markets. The first manufacturer that does that will win for sure.
Have to disagree there, arranger keyboards are classed as kids toys in the pro market and any manufacture that added these features would see their pro sales (Of this type of instrument) fall through the floor.
Technically it’s easy, but changing people’s perception is not.

all good points Bill spot on ....the fact that Yamaha is now changing the terminology with
"GENOS Workstation" will not change or penetrate the " Arranger keyboard kids toy, home keyboard, wooden organ AURA mentality" with Pro Synth KB players. To them anything automatically created styles, sounds etc, etc, VS creating songs from scratch with a real synth workstation will never be seen in their arsenal....I hope that someday changes for both camps.....
