Folks,

I thought it would be a good idea (added to the Ketron Workshop) to include all the prominante Arrangers so it gives many of you and others a chance to finally get to a spot where you can try ALL the good boards and then decide for yourself.

THE FIRST WORKSHOP HAS BEEN SCHEDULED FOR ...

DATE. Saturday, Jan 7th, 2006
Time: 12pm - 6pm
Location: Washington Music Center (Wheaton, MD, USA)... KEYBOARD DEPARTMENT! (301-946-8808).

I will be conducting a massive Arranger show-fest plus detailed Ketron Workshop with the following keyboards:-

GEM - Genesys Pro.
KETRON - SD1Plus-EXP, XD9, MIDIJAY.
KORG - PA1X-PRO (and OASIS for comparisons).
ROLAND - G70 (at last).
YAMAHA - TYROS2 (and Motif ES7 for comaprisons).

You are all welcomed and please let me know about attendace before we finalize this next week.

Again, although it will predominantly be a Ketron Workshop, I will also go into some details with the other arrangers offering differences in features, sounds, styles, other unique capabilities ...etc. It will also be an oppertunity to finally try these out of the SAME PA system and make up YOUR minds as to what you think. Again, where you decide to eventually purchase these is up to you.

Your prompt feedback is welcomed.

Thanks and happy holidays!!

AJ

Sounds like fun... all except the Maryland-in-January part. A southern East Coast Arranger Fiesta would be much appreciated.

Boston, Hartford, New Haven even Northern Jersey wouldn't be too bad either.

In think I'll attend if humanly possible.

Why not Visit Warm & Sunny Maine instead of Maryland. We've got Cold, Snow, more Snow, Ice well you get the idea. We also have Skiing, Ice fishing, Snowmobiles oh yeah, and other cold stuff. You get The idea. My Daughter lives in Naples Fl. time to visit for several months

I think this workshop would be fun. I do have the Genesys XP - might even take it with me damned if I know how to use it. LOL.

Seriously invite the some reps from Roland, Korg, Yamaha, and of Course General music.

I realize the chances of getting one of the other reps showing up might be slim to none but we could all ask.

I will try to make it - Being Self Unemployed some time makes it hard to plan for events.

Yes, you do have skiing and some of the best skiing in the North East is a short drive from you at "Sunday River." The family and I usually spend a week there every January

Sorry AJ, but I'm already booked for the entire month. Only have two days off at the end of the month and my wife says she's booking them for her.

Good Luck,

Gary

Hey AJ I'll be there. I've been wanting to try out some different boards, especially the Ketron. I just happen to have the night off at this point so I'll block it off. Sounds like a great day and I'm looking forward to it.

Thanks,

Joe

.. clock is ticking. Appart from the KETRON SD1Plus-EXP, anyone out there want any detailed presentation on any of the other brands listed above? This will give me time to prepare the 'repetoir'!!

Thanks,

AJ

.. Friday is going to be rather cold, but Sat. should be just fine (no signs of snow), so we're good to go.

Still awaiting input.

Thanks,

AJ
