It's only people that can't play proper chords that somehow think it takes longer to put down four fingers that it does two. IT TAKES THE EXACT SAME TIME. The keyboard didn't get any further away from your hands, your fingers don't get any shorter, the effort to press four notes on these lightweight keybeds is essentially the same as two.

You know what works on every brand of arranger, and every other type of keyboard there is? PLAYING PROPER CHORDS...

Ted's been bitching about this for hundreds of times (thousands!) longer than it would have taken to just sit down AND LEARN IT. Let's be honest. He's the ONLY person complaining about the issue, and has been doing so FOR YEARS... 🙄

Me, I'd stop blaming other people for things I'm too lazy to address myself that would take a few months to do. And the payoff would be the ability to play any arranger, any software and ANY REGULAR KEYBOARD. Why that isn't incentive enough to get Ted to knuckle down for a few months beats the hell out of me.

Just easier to whine, I suppose. For years. But no amount of it is going to bring the fingering system back. You either move on, or you don't. But should you DELIBERATELY choose to not move on, it seems a bit churlish to complain constantly to the very people who a) can't do a damn thing about it, and b) already took the time to master the skill to make the problem moot for themselves.
