As a former Techincs KN5000 owner, I definitely concur with the points you're making. In addition, Technics keyboard's rootless jazz chord recognition was much better in ”full keyboard" mode than it is on the Tyros 4. It was a real blow when Technics stopped producung arranger keyboards. They were ahead of the game, and ahead of their time. The KN-7000 was a real beauty...they also knew how to do a "panel" properly, and many companies, including Yamaha, Roland etc. copied some of their unique design. It was a real surprise when they stopped production....and a real shame. Ian

Technics, Gem, Roland, so sad.... Don't count Roland out yet. A reliable source recently told me they're currently working on a new arranger keyboard model as we speak, and may be releasing it soon. Time will tell of course. Id love to believe that Scott I hope it's true...maybe a BK7m included arranger of some sort? I suspect it will be based on the BK-7M...wouldn't that make it a bit like the GW-8 or Prelude? Have you heard the BK-7M in person, Donny? If so, how does it sound compared to the GW-8/Prelude? Maybe Fran could offer his take on it as well? Ian
