Here you can find out the latest info on arranger and workstation keyboards. I might even include the latest news about synths and organs. The latest and greatest keyboards out at the moment are Yamaha Tyros keyboard, Korg PA2X and the keyboard that I am eagerly awaiting, the Ketron Audya. Update: The Yamaha Tyros keyboard has been released and finally the Ketron Audya. The Audya is a bit pricey at £3500 and its immediate competition is the Yamaha Tyros 3, which is about the same price. The tyros is a 61-note keyboard and a speaker set can be bought with it. These speakers however are only powerful enough for home use. The Audya is a 76 key keyboard; it comes with no speakers so you need a separate amp and speakers. This keyboard is aimed at the pro market and not exactly a beginners keyboard. Both these keyboards are too expensive for me but if I had to choose I would go for Audya because of its 76 key keyboard. I only had about five minutes to try the Audya out so I cant say much yet, but I will say the drums and styles are the best I have ever heard anywhere on any keyboard. There's an almost human feel to the styles and the drum sounds are very dynamic. Anyway, I will add more when I've had a chance to try it out more.
