I started this post for any bashing or negative comments about any equipment..No bashing of people..

If you can't handle negative input of your beloved instrument...leave now!!!

Anyone care to start?

OK I will..I hate the icons[drums] on the toy like appearance of Yamaha and Casio keyboards.

OK I write this reply with a simple question :
What is the use of this childish topic ?

I hope the topic will be ignored from now by all members!.... Please do.

Roel how are you?

Great topic Fran!!!

In keeping with your topic, I hate the slow transferring of files from the Gem Genesys to the computer using the CD burner on the Gem Genesys and the lack of rootless chord voicing recognition.
I hate the touch screen on the Korg Pa1x totally useless in a music setting and especially for live playing. And it does not even have a PC editor

I hate the heaviness of the Roland G70 and also the lack of a sampler.

I hate the lack of 76 keys on the Tyros 2 and the spaceship look.

I hate the fact that most persons on the SZ don’t have any respect and never took the time to understand the mediastation and it’s forward looking concepts and approach to keyboard usage.


Fran you and DNJ would be missed when you all leave or just get so ostracized on the SZ because a few other members just can not understand your brilliance and don’t agree with your views on keyboards.

If you don't get a lot of responses on this topic then that would prove what I mean.

I wasn't going to, but I will step into the trap ...
I hate the fact that technics stopped making arranger kbs ... the BEST of them ALL
t.

Two words, dude .....
KEY FEEEEEEEEEEEL !!!

nuff said.

I hate that "no" arranger to date can compete with the likes of a synth for modern music.

Squeak

I'd like to see a arranger keyboard that would automatically "dumb down" to the intelligence level of it's owner. Also, the quality of the voices would automatically reflect the quality of the playing. Also, hitting a "bad" chord while playing live, would cause an immediate system shutdown and restart (with the autoload of a 10 Gig piano sample). Also, each time a SMF or MP3 is played through the keyboard, a vocal sample would automatically play the following announcement: "THE MUSIC YOU HEAR IS NOT BEING PERFORMED BY THE PERSON PRETENDING TO PLAY THIS KEYBOARD".

I hate any and all equipment that has touch screens, and scrolling and/or wrapping menues. I hate most music software programs because I've either gotta work like hell to get my screenreader to deal with all the graphics and poor design, or I just can't use it altogether. I hate image/text varification on websites like Rapidshare or KVR. I hate that American companies can't produce solid carved tops on archtop Jazz guitars that sound any good unless you're willing to pay 15000 dollars, while China can do it for 2000.

Roland piano/strings layering vs that absolutely great Yamaha feature......... I'd be in heaven if Roland would take a lesson.

Great thread Fran
