Most of us GAS folks would probably be better served just renting equipment...with the option to try something new every 6 months or so.
There's one trick in all this...with an arranger that is...
I've been reprogramming my S970 to use for future gigs...lots of my own time involved....even with using registrations from my Tyros 4.
Thing is, unless someone knows something I don't....arrangers aren't just grab and go. There's lots of mixing and matching styles, voices, multipads and whatever.
Even if I went to the 'Dark Side' as Don suggested, once I get a Korg, there's a lot of work in front of me to use it for a gig.
Thoughts?
Donny, sorry. Hope this doesn't goof up your sale.

I didn't want to hijack Donny's thread any more than what was being done already, but I did want to comment on what guitpic has posted.
Yes, you are right - going from one manufacturer to another is a daunting task - especially if you are not at all familiar with the OS ...
For the past couple of weeks, I too have been going through my styles and tweaking/editing/changing them, sometimes for specific songs, other times just to make it sound 'better' at least to my ears ... there might be a Brass track in a style playing a certain riff, and I will copy that into another track and perhaps change it to a sax voice, and then have one track going to the right and the other going to the left so that the sound is 'opened up' ... It is WORK, for sure, but I am also finding it to be fun as well ...
These are things one is only going to do when one knows the KB is going to be around for a while - OR, that the newly edited style would be transportable to another KB ...
