Keep in mind that 35 years ago, arranger keyboards were in their infancy and Casio pretty much had the market cornered. While their individual sounds/voices were just awful, their style files were pretty darned good. It only took a year or two before Yamaha, Korg and Roland jumped into the market and Casio rapidly took a back seat to more realistic sounding sounds/voices produced by other manufacturers. To my knowledge, Yamaha is the only manufacturer that also produces other instruments, and seems to have cornered a lot of those markets.
