Ha ha, you guys are right. I have the best, and am very happy with all--to a point. I love the challenge of setting up new gear with new technology. In this case, I really prefer the sound of Ketron, and my Audya is great, but I could have new Ketron sounds in a small footprint.
Fran, you keep a keyboard forever like Gary, and that's fine, but I am "HAPPILY" enjoying my life with my toys. To hell with being practical, I spent too many years doing that.
Thanks for asking. Bernie maybe a Ketron SD40 with a nice controller KB like a Novation, Native Instruments Komplete S61,S88, etc, would be a great setup for you in many ways vs what you already have..

Yes, I have a Novation MK11 61 and an Axiom 61 for use with vArranger and Muse Receptor 2 with Kontakt and complete East West orchestral and B42. I don't use the Receptor much, but do use Composer3 notation from my laptop for playing two handed over midi files. The SD40 could handle the lead and accomp in a compact light rig with one of my controllers, or, if I wanted a bigger setup, I could midi an SD40 to one of my KBs.
I may do nothing, but it is fun to try different combinations.

The Native instruments are more a studio keyboard... if you want something like it better suited for live playing, the akai advance series are great... Also SD40 with Kronos, Montage, or even Roland Jupiter 80 or FA06 or Nord Stae makes a perfect combo with the sd40..

Thats kind of a very heavy cumbersome package to carry gigging in and out vs just a SD40/midjay pro and 61/76 controller which is more then enough to work with

I don't see how. The SD40 is around 4 pounds in one compact unit. You then choose between a 12 lb controller or 30 lb keyboard.
