HQ built in speakers would have been my #1 choice, but it was not there.

The thing I would have put second after low weight and compact dimensions is not offered.

The ability to easily edit every aspect of styles as in the Technics KN7000.

I made my 4 choices, but I felt the poll missed some stuff, my real choices would be:

chord track, midi sequencer, low weight, high quality keybed, highest quality sounds, not an high price.

Samples might be cool if the sampler reads Akai....otherwise not much help. Touchscreen etc....not important

Wow shocked . . So far, only 102 total votes gathered, and considering each person gets 4 votes, that means only 25 people have voted so far. This thread's now got 170 views, so 144 of these people haven't voted yet. Come on people, everyone's input's important as it let's the manufacturer's know the most important features we as a group collectively want in an arranger.

If the poll doesn't include a specific feature you want, add a reply, but please, also vote on the choices given in my poll because 'all our votes' collectively matter! cool

Built in speakers ( great ones ) , are a must , however the most important feature for me would be key feel and action.

Meaning , the keybed should be solid and well balanced ,

You can`t play it if you don`t want to touch it !!

&#63743; <<< That was supposed to be an "Apple" !!

Shift / Option / k = apple symbol smile

Sorry, Scott, but it's not NEARLY as comprehensive a list of arranger features to be of an accuracy.

For me, seamless patch change is one of my 'must haves', plus a high Fill/Variation ratio, too.

Choice of key touch and number of keys
Great Vocalizer and Mic settings
Great Styles, with lots of variations, fills, breaks and easy to edit and save
Great sounds
Light weight
Reliable construction
Great support with response to customers
Chord sequencer
Multipads
Good display
Joy stick
Good layout of controls for live play
Good registration/music finder system
Wait, according to specs, the new Korg has all that.
I'll have to hear the styles though.

To answer the post, yes I think a new Poll in in order.
Apparently there is at least one company who is listening to us.
