You can't go wrong with the Wersi that's for sure. Wersi has been making OAS instruments longer than anyone else and their software, user interface, and sounds are superb. The Orchestral sounds are especially nice. OAS 7 brings the Abacus to a new level that no other arranger can yet challenge. I really like the feel of the keybed Wersi uses and their build quality is fantastic. The other advantage the Wersi has is a wonderful sounding internal sound system. It does weigh a lot because of the all metal and wood construction but that's what one would expect from such an instrument at that price.

Since Wersi's customers are primarily older and they're not as computer savvy, Wersi overcame this by making an instrument that practically anyone can turn on, use, and understand without ever cracking a manual open. Almost idiot proof you might say. I'm always amazed just how easy it is to use and how it works as it should. Every manufacturer should strive to make their instruments this easy to use.

The Lionstracs Mediastation is a good alternative to the Wersi but its not as easy to use as the Wersi. Lionstracs build quality isn't on par with the Wersi (no other arranger I've seen is), but its still very good. Lionstracs just released new software which greatly improved the instrument and added new GIGA sounds. Dependent upon which features you require the Lionstracs may be an option for you. The Mediastation sound library isn't as extensive as the Wersi out of the box but you can buy third party sounds and software to broaden the Lionstracs sound palette.

Korg is also breaking new ground with their Oasys but to date it lacks arranger functions. Version 1.2.2 adds new Analog synth emulations of the Korg MS20 and Polysix. You can use and program KARMA scenes to act like an arranger but that takes quite a bit of time. The Oasys sounds great and the synthesizer and KARMA features are its strongest points. If only Korg would incorporate arranger functions from the PA1X Pro into the Oasys they would have a true monster on their hands. Only time will tell what Korg will do. Some third party companies are now beginning to develop sounds for the Oasys as well.

No matter which unit you buy, all will make you very happy. You definitely can't go wrong with the Wersi though!
