I agree, alot of musicians need to be streamlined and the Korg does the
trick, out of the box. Everyone has there own thoughts on gear. I was just
sharing my findings, that some on this list might find interesting. There
are a few of us who need that need the analog fix, so we try to get to the
closest old school sound as we can without sacrificing to much. While staying
lighter weight. BTW has anyone on this list, checked out the General music
new vintage clone stage piano? This is a great list.

Best Regards,
Tony
