Vermeer, you make good points that I agree with.
When I say catch up I'm talking from the lower end in the same way PC's replaced much more expensive business computers. I don't think there is any reason that Roland or Yamaha couldn't make a $2,000 to $3,000 61 to 88 note next generation Phanton or Motif with the hardware ergonomics that the Oasys has. That's what I'm hoping for. The Motif ES is already close with the remote mode Mackie control but Yamaha needs to take that a step further with more knobs and sliders, trigger pads, and a more information display. A lot of the other stuff I'm happy to keep ITB.
That being said, if I was starting from scratch today and knew how much time I would loose to figuring out all the pieces I currently have, the mistakes I bought and sold, and configuring and learning all the products, I could see it making some sense (not at list price though)
