Roland seems to be coasting along in neutral. They need to put it in gear and put on the gas or they'll continue to eat a lot of dust from the likes of Yamaha, Korg and yes Casio too as well.

By the way the new Casio Privia PX-s1000/s3000 appear to be arrangers from what I've read. They have hundreds of "rhythms" to play along with but I'm not sure if there are variations, intro's or endings. Maybe it would be better to call it a semi-arranger? Too soon to tell but hopefully Casio will clarify more on how the auto-accompaniment works.

All the best,

Mike
