I have a problem with you saying that RolandFans Reviews is balanced. How can you have an insight into a G-70 review if you have never played the G-70?


BlkNotes: Hmmm. By balanced, I meant that I felt Rolandfan pointed out not only the G70 features he didn't like, but GOOD features he liked as well:

The screen is a big improvement on the VA5

there are lots of editing features, the vocal harmony is better than tyros.

The styles are improved over the VA series . . .
if you liked the VA7 sounds, then you will like this G70.


BlkNotes: The G70 has been receiving the most 'mixed reviews' of any arranger keyboard released that I can remember. As I pointed out (and quoted) on another thread:
http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum37/HTML/010744.html

Steve Fortner, of Keyboard magazine gave it a stellar review. As I stated earlier in this thread, I myself am with-holding personal judgement re the G70 until I've had a chance to audition one myself. In the meantime, I certainly appreciate reading the wide diversity of personal opinions expressed here about the G70 as well as any other arranger keyboard.

Scott
