I would really like to see the RMI Electra Piano and the Fender Contempo come to Arturia.

I'd like them to spend the same R&D money improving the ones they've got.

The Vox is passable, but Wurli V, Stage 73 and Piano V are all below par and unusable as convincing solo instruments. The CS80V sounds nothing like a CS80 so I have had to buy the Memory Moon ME80 instead, which is streets ahead in terms of sounding authentic. And I'm almost considering taking the plunge and buying Pianoteq, which has a street price of anything from is $149 to $449 depending whether you buy Stage, Standard or Pro, but the sound quality of the modelling is just on a different planet compared to Arturia's modelled pianos.

And yet synths like the DX7 V sound amazing and stand up to any comparison with the real thing. I don't know how they can be so inconsistent.
