Dave,
What I was refering to with the record feature is the view I am seing in the color display, not the actual way I'm recording. It's the visual thing I totaly appreciated on the G70. As you know, I sell most brands of keyboards in my store, including GEM products. I get excited with new keyboards when I find features which aid the player in making music, songs or styles easier and more intuitive. The G70's color screen and design features brings this to users in a very user friendly manner and this is what I was commenting about. All the type of the line arrangers have their strengths that differ from the competition and over the past 6 or 7 years of my posting here as a music store owner, I have always given my newest received products as much posting here as I think will interest the readers. The comments I receive from the readers is that they enjoy my reporting on as much as possible when they themselves might not be able to see or touch one of these new models because of limited availability. I am not saying that the product I'm reviewing is the best or only choice but rather giving my view on the latest choice. I know I get excited when I really like what I'm playing with, but this is my personality and I think the readers will agree here that I am consistant!
I do understand your perspective that more than one product overs similar features but my intention here was not to do a comparison but rather a review of a newly received product.
