From Diki's Post "OK, first things first.... Dan. Every style you call up, you hit a button called 'Makeup Tools'. Every single style sound (irrespective of Part - sometimes there are multiple sounds, either in the same variation or in others) comes up in an individual widow there, easily scrolled through. In which, the Tone selection, Vol, Pan, Chorus, EQ, Reverb, Mute (so you can mute one sound within a Part, and have others sound), and most importantly, velocity offset (either plus or minus). Tweak here easily and fast. OK, now go to the drum Part (only one, sadly ). Firstly, you have all those global changes. Then in the same window, you can open up the Kit, and every drum sound has the same changes... Sound, Volume Pan,Reverb Chorus, EQ, and the all-important velocity offset (if you have multiple velocity sound drums, this is critical). Fix what you need, leave what you don't. Style sounds great now. OK... Now either save it as a new style, or overwrite the original. When saved as the original. all edits will now come up regardless of registration (UPG in Rolandspeak). Done. Fast. Easy. Graphically self-explanatory (never had to read the manual). "


Diki..basically the same thing with Ketron products. The G70 & Ketron is made in Italy, you don't think these guys look at what each other does ?

Different terminology, but same type of editing tools.

Your making way to big of a deal on ease of use for Roland products. Personally, I can't stand Rolands editing tools. However, navigation is practically the same with most arrangers.

You nit pick perceived navigation issues because you read certain things about Ketron..

It really comes down to the sound and that's an area that is personal choice.

As Don Mason said a long time ago, "it's the sound stupid" . If you don't like it, don't buy it.
