Folks, I've decided to keep the G-70 around for doing film score roughs. I'm not going to gig with it, but it will be a useful tool to access rythems and sounds for the work I do. It will stay set-up and that will eliminate shifting equipment around at that point in the process of film production. The equipment I use out is in a different area of the warehouse , left at a house job or in a vehicle. The product using a G-70 will be more than sufficient to do the roughs like the one I just sent Donny. And I'm sure it is a superior performance board for many.
Like I said, it's all a matter of personal tastes, and the G-70, while a much better than average board, isn't for me. It'll be a good work board, though. If Donny posts the rough I sent him, you'll see what I mean.
Diki, I REALLY appreciate your input and admire your commitment to your craft. I think it would be a ball to do projects together.
Knowledge and passion are admirable traits.
Taike and Chas are friends, and I know you've had run-ins with both of them, which bothered me. This proves, however, that you can make your points in an intelligent sustainable way, even when there is a fundamental disagreement involved, and do it with class.
Thanks,
Russ
