I share your thoughts, reflections and conclusions, Diki. I have worked INTENSIVELY with the G-70 since December 2004, so both you and I represent a group of posters, who base our statements on SOLID KNOWLEDGE about the G-70 - in contrary to those, who have only a superficial knowledge - you know, the one, who played it for a few hours or the one, who know of a neighbour etc. etc....

Everything you say in EVERY message you write is extremely well-considered and unbiased. I recommend to anyone to listen CAREFULLY, when Diki says something about the G-70. He DEFINITELY knows, what he is talking about!

Of course there has to be space for people saying: "I just don't like it" - but to you who read these threads from the "sideline" I want to say that you should be careful, when reading the messages from the "haters", because they are often filled with wrong facts about the G-70!

Just look at Diki's latest post. He is definitely committed to the G-70, but he also points of important issues that are potential showstoppers for you, if you right now consider buying the G-70 - and he does it in an unbiased way... Your efforts are truly admirable, Diki!

I agree with Diki that the voicing and mixing of the G-70 ROM styles are poor OOTB. To you, who might not know this, I have re-voiced and re-mixed 271 of the 285 ROM styles. Everyone can download the re-worked style files from the download section at the G-70 user club website. It took me MONTHS to tweak the styles, so using my work as a G-70 newbie you can definitely cut corners to get the styles sound good! Hope some of you can use this information
