All I did was state that I was not recommending the BK-7M to anyone, based on what YOU, FRAN, UNCLE DAVE, DEANE and three other professionals, all of which had issues with the instrument.

Then I have one person defending the very product he took back because it didn't fit his needs....last time I looked we were on a General Arranger Forum, so the BK-&M didn't meet the needs of an arranger user. Now that's a real revelation.

Being a General Arranger Forum also means that mentioning, promoting, and recommending other products in a thread is allowed...there was no hijacking, and no nonsense.

Until now.

I repeat:

I will not recommend the BK-7M based on what I read here on SZ, which includes the experiences of at least TWO Roland fanpeople and from three other former users

In fact, one of my new clients was a real Roland aficionado, having several Roland synths, amps, recorders, and a Roland accordion.

He told me he was that displeased with the BK-7M, he wanted to take a hammer to it, and send the pieces back to Roland saying he fixed it for them.

He bought a PSR-S710 and is very pleased with it.

Is it my fault the BK-7M was problematic for you, Fran, Uncle Dave, Deane and the three new clients I have?

Seems you think so. Of course, you are the only one of the bunch who kept it.

It certainly isn't your friend Donny's fault...and he has mentioned it as well, so you conveniently turn your aim at me, so as to try and give yourself some comfort after buying a less than acceptable product.

You're just putting more egg on your face...as I said already, why not quit while you're behind?

PS...SZ has always had it's share of arguments...that's nothing new, and it certainly just did not start since I joined...all one has to do is look back at the older posts. As far as people leaving, that's also been a common thing...the door swings both ways, and I have seen many new faces here on SZ, as well as quite a few older members returning.
