Today I play 3 hours with my own G70. It is available in Moscow at 3040 euro. I am first Russian that used to buy this device. Thanks to SZ I know about it more than dealers and not think much before buying

I was more interested in G70’s style section than in sound one (I am not like Roland's sound concept, Yamaha’s sounds better for me) but nevertheless it have several nice sounds that can compete with my psr9000.

In style section it lacks style morphing -- and styles present less diversity to my ear. Moreover, 4 variations very similar one to another at many styles, like at PA1X, only minor change from variation to variation. Cover feature is very useful to change sound -- but this change not very dramatic, not such refreshing as with style morphing. Styles more smooth than at VA-76 (that mean more boring for me: less drive for a play, less human band feeling).

Sound of a style many times better than at VA-76 due to more sample quality.

Makeup Tool -- this is simple pages with reverb, pan, effects, volume, etc. settings for every instrument in style. It is not for live performance, it is about (fast?) tweaking style to prepare it to performance.

G70 has very strange default settings: e.g. too much reverb in every style.

"Pad" assigned to IR sensor: hand swish to elicit finger clap or guitar strum or vocal scat (along chord played) of even DJ effect sounded like LP 33rpm with played song stopped by hand.

Verdict: in style section Roland did one step forward and another step backward.
Tomorrow I will try to load old VA-76 styles to this beast. With Cover feature it should add diversity to the arranger.
