Allis,
BOth of my Korg Professional Arrangers allow significant sound alteration. Admittedly, you're not going to create a new sound from oscillators, filters and modulation as you would in the 'good old days' of analog synth, but, within the confines of PCM sampling, I can do an amazing amount of tweaking on the sounds I have on board.

However, for me, since I play primarily standards, jazz, latin, and 'lounge music', I look for authenticity in acoustic sounds, not the ability to turn a new sound. But, that's just me.

My latest PA, the PA800, will allow me to import my own sample data, and create my own sounds completely, and that's an ARRANGER keyboard.

I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!
