I sure wish my G70 had separate outs for the HB section..... My Motion Sound Pro3T (my second, as I had the pre-tube one too) sits there idle, just waiting.....
While the G70's basic VK engine is fine, unfortunately, the way they have cobbled it in to the G70 architecture is flawed..... the overdrive is POST-fader in the main G70 mixer, so it is very hard to get a death grind out of it without it being very loud, and the reverb send is pre-Leslie. That's right, you heard it here first. PRE-LESLIE!
What moron came up with that brilliant concept....?
But...... to be fair and balanced (well, a bit more than Fox News!), I do have to say that the slightly rounded key ends makes for some very comfortable palm smears, something not easy to do on other, sharper keys.
Reminds me of when I was playing a showband in England in my youth and they provided a Boosey and Hawkes Hammond X-5 clone for me to play, with the sharpest key ends I've ever encountered..... Every single night my palms would get cut and the keyboard get smeared in blood. I just figured, what the hell, rocked it forward on it's stand so the audience could see the blood, and watched the crowd go crazy! Aaaahhhhhh, happy days...!
