I know, but I was referring to the quality of the board, meaning that even non-Roland owners should have a look of them.

In fairness, though, the G70 Rhodes's already ARE pretty good, and the keybed is great for playing them, but even after listening to the Roland SRX demo's, my nod goes to the Nord.


Well, I beg to differ, and so does the owner of the Purgatory Creek website; you might want to check this link , that refers to a topic posted some time ago on the Keyboard Corner.

In his own words: "Here is something I posted a while back to demonstrate the similarity in tone between the SRX Rhodes and the Scarbee software Rhodes (considered by many to be the best Rhodes sample library). The first is SRX Rhodes #2 followed by Scarbee. My preference is actually Rhodes 1 on the SRX-12 board which tonally is beautiful. I use it all the time. I don't have a demo available of that Rhodes. I also have a Nord Electro 61 and Electro Rack. I'm sorry, but I much prefer the sound of the SRX Rhodes over the Nords. In terms of "the tone" and clarity. Well listen to the demos and compare.

The Wurly is another story. The SRX Wurly is just kind of strange, IMO. I prefer the Nord."

Now, since you own already a G-70 and -if I remember well- it has an empty expansion slot, I wonder: what are you waiting for?
My Fantom XR is thanking me all the time for filling one of its slots with the SRX 12.
