Is there any model from Yamaha/Roland/... which enables user to load custom sample anyway and use it on keyboard (pref. stage piano)?

My goal is to have ability to copy on pendrive/keyboard memory sample of electric guitar so I could play using this sample. Is this possible? Are there any models on marketplace with this option?

Adrian, there are many keyboards and synths that can do this, and they've been on the market since the mid-1990s. We consider broad "shopping" questions to be off-topic for this forum. There are many magazines and Web sites devoted to product reviews of synthesizers; you might be better served by looking for some of them. – Wheat Williams Jul 3 '12 at 13:08
when you do find such a model, It'd be great if you could post back here and answer your own question :) I remember trying to find a synth like this in the 90s and there was only the Peavey DPM3 and you had to send the samples over midi via "sample dump standard" - REEEEally sloww. I wouldn't mind perusing the specs of a modern synth that could presumably load a .WAV set by USB stick or something. – Stephen Hazel Jul 3 '12 at 15:32
Well, there were dedicated samplers but they were spendy. – Stephen Hazel Jul 3 '12 at 15:33
Wheat's right. Please check out our FAQ and if you have other questions that would be a better fit here, please feel free to ask them! – Matthew Read♦ Jul 3 '12 at 16:56
