Manufacturers need to start labling the more complex equipment with warnings!
Caution, Advanced Technology requires intensive study and learning to operate!
Why would a non-keyboard playing idiot buy a complex beast of a keyboard and not read the manual? Then proceed to whine and get frustrated on the forums, bad mouthing the mfg and calling their lack of understanding a "BUG"!
Sorry, now I am bugging you!
Having a first, or even second timer buy a Kronos, is like a 16 year kid buying a high performance sports car, they are going to end up wrapped around a telephone poll, or at best, in a ditch.
Btw, I agree with you mostly. And to add another interesting story:
I once was in a band with a guitarist who could play average (not bad though), however he did not really knew his equipment. He was quite rich (well let's say he earned quite some money with gigging in a party band) and he had one of the most expensive effect devices at that moment (Eventide Harmonizer or something similar).
It was just too bad he couldn't really use it, it didn't do what he wanted a lot of times, and that included also times during a real gig.
Now I have to admit I don't use by far all options on my Kronos and I need to dive into it, but for gigs I only use the things I know and I (almost0 never run into any problem onstage.
