I am always amazed at the number of people that never take the owners manual out of the zip-loc bag it came in with the keyboard. The very first thing they do is jump onto a forum and ask someone else to do it for them. Typical! There has been several occasions where someone would post a question and I would provide the answer and the page in the owners manual where the information could be found. Unfortunately, this was never a deterrent and those same folks would be asking more questions an hour later, often on the same subject.
Yes, Gary, once I was to help a man with PSR-S750, his question was about saving registrations. I looked in the manual and figured that I could either quote it or send it to him as it was with a page number. So I did. And it was like he totally ignored this my effort or was insulted by it. He kept asking questions complaining that whole menu was too complicated and I realized that he was expecting me to be some kind of a tutor. Ironically, he was supposed to perform in public with a band.
Arranger keyboards are not like iPads which are mostly used only to get content, not to produce one. These keyboards may seem attractive in a store, but in fact a player should really have an aching desire to go deep into it, because unlike iPhone, only a small part of population is capable to appreciate this product.
It’s an uneasy question in fact. Because it seems reasonable that one can start playing keyboards only if he has one, and we know that a good instrument can inspire some progress. But in the same time we know that no matter how good the instrument is, if a person is not a player, eventually he’ll give up on it completely.
So, there’s no judging on people who are struggling to use their purchases, somehow they were lucky to get an instrument of somebody else’s dream and there will be some process of admitting, denial, or an miraculous inspiration.
