BN, I don't really agree with you.

I think that if somebody ones full blown sampling, they should not be using an arranger keyboard. That is not what the arranger is built for. As you say 32mb is nothing today, but I find it VERY hard to believe that Yamaha would include much more than that. And even if they would put in 100 mb or more, you wouldn't get that many additional sounds out of it.

An arranger is a "jack of all trades" where everthing is as you say "ready to go". It comes with ready preprogrammed sounds, ready preprogrammed styles, ready preprogrammed multi-pads etc. It would logically follow, that I would want an expansion possibility which would let me add to that prepreparedness.

Sampling would be cute on an arranger. If somone is serious about sampling though, they should invest in a workstation.

As they say, just my 2c,
Chony
