Reading on the Wersi forums, it has been mentioned that the T4 plus other Yamaha instruments were played in the background on the latest American Idol show, as I seldom watch this type of program is there anyone on SZ who possibly saw it, and can confirm it.

It would certainly be the highest profile of an arranger ever featured on TV. (There have been other TV shows that featured them (Mainly in Europe) but none with such a global viewing)

Makes sense, so the groups could work out their parts

I saw the program and it was a Yamaha, but I couldn't determine which model it was.

Yamaha probably paid AI for advertising exposure rights...
it's been done before by many product manufacturers.
