Yesterday afternoon a customer of mine came into my store to try the VA7 for the third time. He owns a G1000 and I consider him to be a fine musician and someone who has played all of the different models of arranger keyboards over many years. His comments about the VA7 agree almost 100% with many of you. He loves the sounds. He sat in my store for over 4 hours playing all the different trumpet and guitar sounds, and kept shaking his head over how natural say sounded. At one point I had to look over to where he was because I was sure he pulled out a real trumpet and wasn't playing the keyboard. The embochure was so real! The sounds in tone map 4, which were developed for the VA products are extremely well done, and for those who love the G1000, tone map 3 is all the original G1000 sounds. The controversy over the lack of buttons or the touch screen usage will go on, but there is no argument from my customers over the sounds. They are fantastic!
