Yeah, that's what i meant Thank you very much John.

And well, the Technics C-600 from i believe 1984 had PCM drums, before the Sound Canvas. And polyphony from that was 24 notes sure! But, that didn't came out in `85 But in `91 (The SC-55)
And it was just a glorified midifile player in my opinion.

The KN-1000 had 16 notes of polyphony in 1990 and in 1993 with the release of the KN-2000 (Either 1993 or 1994) it went to 32 While others were still indeed chewing on 16-24..

And don't forget that a keyboard was an all in one machine, the KN-2000 had great sound edit capabilities, a fantastic sequencer, a great style composer, lots of sounds and styles, and i believe was roughly the same pricepoint as the SC-55.

Not starting an argument here, but just sharing what i know..
