At Sundays Ft. Wayne demo/jam I actually saw someone BUY an Audya at $4899.

Some around think it's justified and can afford it.

My take in GENERAL is that all these TOTL arrangers are way overpriced. If you compare them to a PRO Synth.

$5,000 is over the hill IMHO.

buying it?

there's a difference between buying it and WAITING for it to eventually be released and come in

AND

buying it and taking it home...

I know for a fact, from an official information that Roland will no more produce arrangers, at
least high end Arrangers from Roland are just a thing from the past...it is information from a
very reliable source...there is reasons of WHY to it too.

If thats true which I doubt....Yamaha will be very happy to dominate the market even more.

Yes, but they have to pay attention to the estetics so the Tyros, or whatever new name they going to use for the new generation, don't look like 'home organs'. In addition why don't they use their best sound to play midi tracks? and, what's up with .waw player. MP3 is becoming a standard for gigs, why didn't they use an MP3 player?

Price is although more appealing that the Audya. I think if there is a way to stop selling Audya from US to Europe, perhaps the price in US should be as suggested 3,999.99. Hospice musicians cannot effort that tag.

Maybe if Korg changes their "folder/set" & Driven OS, & Fills, they'll have a chance I for one will never buy another korg until then & I've been playing Korg arrangers since they started...

i have never played a Korg Arranger,
just Ketron and Roland

how about if Korg now starts building "toys" as Roland has and then...

what we have left is Ketron and Yamaha...and then...

there's a merge and we get our TYRTRON we have all been craving ???
