Mel I can honestly say that the Pa1000 although a few disagree is for the price and bang for the buck one of the most quality feature & navigationally packed arranger keyboard on the market today
for the player/singer hands down. Not to mention the fantastic SONGBOOK also.
I had one last year besides having two Pa4x units also,...
and since going thru almost all that is out there except the SD9
when I add all my needs up vs all the Pa1000 features
the Pa1000 comes closest at this time. Now with all this time on my hands and an empty studio as a blank canvas & quarantine boredom
I just might try one again we'll see.....
