Hello Jean Pierre. One of the things I've always liked about Wersi is the fact that they give you proper Hammond-type drawbars... even on a portable keyboard! What is it with Yamaha? Why do they still only give us 'pretend' drawbars by way of up/down buttons, or sliders at best... is it something to do with copyright? Yet, Wersi (and Orla, actually) have done it for years!

Kind regards,
Will

Hi Will --

It's most probably due to cost. It's not just the cost of the real drawbars themselves, but the need to physically accommodate those sliding thingies in the mechanical design of the chassis, etc.

It's easier and cheaper to mount slide potentiometers or switches on a printed circuit board and have them poke up through a simple molded (or cut) front panel. Even Nord and other clone makers use this approach to cut cost.

Hope this explanation helps -- pj

P.S. I'd love the real deal, too -- at a reasonable price.  ;)
