You didn't miss me, Tommy, but I do really understand your request. I am one of the newer posters. I came to visit this forum because I had and have trouble with my synth. I've got some really good advisements in here but nevertheless it will last a while until the trouble will be shot. If the trouble will be shot I will leave this forum for a longer time because I'm in progress of recording.

Maybe the threads will go better again then...

I'm still here, but like others have said I'm not interested in some of the topics that have come up lately. I pop in from time to time now to read the posts, and if one catches my eye I'll read and possibly post if I have something to say on the issue. The forum has gotten a little dry lately, but I've seen this happen before. I've been a member going on five years now, and over that time I've seen it happen a few times.

Maybe she will be the next piano star in 2020!?
A very nice photo - she's really examining the kb - what a sweet child!!!

...and she'll still be playing that G1000 in 2020. But she'll have to have a boyfriend to carry it for her, cause grandpa will be too old.

I would think this would be one quick and easy solution for those wanting a pre-amp.

I bought a few several years ago for my phono's. Don't have a need for them yet, but heck, I bought them at the Dollar Store.

Let's see. How much did I pay for them yet? Hmmmmmmmm..............

Sorry, I used to go into the Dollar Store and for fun I'd go up to the girls at the counter and ask them how much some item was. Cheap humor.

I fully agree. Seems like half of the topics here aren't about arrangers anymore.

There isn't much happening in arrangers lately anyway, and I was very disturbed by Yamaha's draconian approach of asking independent forums to remove the pix of the Tyros II that were leaked out. I seems that even if something juicy comes along to see and talk about in arrangers, it'll be removed. I feel like our hands were slapped. Plus the guy who was claiming to have the inside track on Yamaha's new stuff, "tigerfool", has also disappeared.

It was Nigel's call and I respect that, and other forums also cooperated with Yamaha's call to remove the Tyros II pix, but I'd like to have seen someone stand up to Yamaha on the basis of free speech - if they let a prototype keyboard out for use at a performance (as the pix appeared) then we should have every right to post pictures and discuss it. It's not like the pictures were taken inside of their secret corporate test labs or something. What good is an open forum if manufacturers can effectively censor it?

Well it could be worse - the discussions on Yamaha's own ArrangerWorkstation.com are pitiful. But this incident sure put a damper on my enthusiasm for talking about new arrangers and the Tyros II in particular.
