Well..I will be heading out to gig with the E-60...you know that $599, repackaged keyboard that Dave mentioned [see how far off base..even my buddies can be.. ]..

Cass, maybe Uncle Dave can get you a better price than George..

So far the E-60, has taken care of all my keyboard needs with the band...Tonight I will ice[cancel]..the G1000 recorded Mp3's and use the E-60..both sequences and arranger play...I won't even let my band members know what is going on...

I was planning on recording the tunes on the E-60 and save as MP3's[to replace the G1000 tunes], but I think I may as well ..just keep the E-60..

I know it sounds as good as anything else out there, and it is very comfortable to use[since I already know the G70 ]...

I think if Roland added a mic/audio input on this board, for just a little more dough...They would have a winner in a class of it's own..

Of course they would have to take it away from the CK division [home piano stores] and give it to the MI stores..that really would sell the keyboard...

Two week update review coming if anything new..comes to life..

Dave ..warm up the PA800..after breakfast[when you get another day off]..
