I'm really anxious to get more feedback & discoveries from you on the new G70.
On the subject of chord recognition, It's great to discover that Roland at least supports 2 out of the 5 'rootless type' jazz chord voicings I desired:
F1-B1-E2 : G7(13) Eb1-A1-D2 : F7(13)
Since Roland correctly recognizes the above 2 as 'rootless type' chords, I suspect that it may be fairly easy to convince them to change the 'chord recognition' of the other three from:
which provides a smooth II-V7-I style chord progression.
o3bor: I hope you & other G70 owners might contact Roland, and provide them a link to this thread in hopes they'll read it & implement my request.
One other question: How does the G70's acoustic piano sound? Is it of the SAME impressive sound quality as the one included on the Roland Fantom? Thanks.

I think that Roland chord recognition is the best ever (they have also some patents about it). For sure I'll report your requests and I hope they'll consider them. About G70 piano I can confirm what RF says: it's really impressive and outstanding, but many other new sounds are really cool too. There is also plenty of features for midi file playing and one man band applications. I suggest everybody to check it carefully and personally, and verify if it meets your taste and needings.
