Guys thanx for your opinions its nice to hear everyone's views on this topic, btw Ian I am primarily a Vocal Keyboard Artist ...it shows how we all use an arranger KB in so many different ways when we perform.....different features are used differently for everyones needs....the versatility & personal playing enjoyment alone is worth the money...we'll always have to make workarounds so that we can accomodate how we play & utilize the instrument....personal preferences make the world go around...I'll demo it down the road as I will many others ...size em up and compare, reassess priorities and possibly another purchase if not there's always the next latest & greatest around the corner
