I have just read a posting by Kari1 and I can confirm all the facts he has given about the new Solton arranger. This afternoon I had the opportunity to talk to a distributor of Solton keyboards. He himself hadn't seen a picture of the new gear but he had a fax info saying that the new SM1 is supposes to have 76 keys. It will have 256 totally new sounds. The style section will technically be based on the X1 technology but it will have over 100 new styles with four Intros, Variations and Endings and Fill-ins.
I cannot confirm the info about the 10,000 registrations but one thing very much improved will be the Drawbar-organ section with 9 virtual drawbars. The dealer said that Solton mentioned the end of November but he himself thought it not to be out before December and hopefully on the market by February 2001.
