Technics have not folded Larry, they have given you a market leading keyboard, are continuing support for a period providing spares and service for years to come and even given you a host of free styles ready converted as a going away present.

They have just decided not to produce another product. Since no one had a right to or contract for a follow up product I hardly see it as selling anyone down the river. It's disappointing, it's sad, it's the end of an era, the rest is economics, supply and demand and the modern world. I know a lot of people still enjoying their big GA organs with gusto. Technics pulled out of organs years ago, were these people still swearing by their organs now sold down the river?

As long as the demand is there I dare say Technote will satisfy what they can, the more negative attitudes take hold I dare say the sooner the demand may dissipate and the earlier we will all move on to new horizons.
