Ted, I don't know if it leaves me "cold"...

Things I like about the G70 that the PA4x doesn't give me..
First the keys are better..
I like the D-beam.
I like the singer key feature..
I like the full feature playlist..
I like the make up tools..
I like the cover feature..
I like 6 realtime parts..
I like 6 fills, 4 intros, 4 endings..
I like the chord read out for all MIDI files..
I like the smart chord recognition of the vocalizer..
I like the FC7 option..
I prefer the more logical OS..
I like the routing options and effects assignments better..
I prefer many of the G70 sounds over the PA4x, like piano and EP's.


These are just a few off the top of my head..

I have never cared for the management of saving styles and songs on the Korg .. [/quote]

If you quote a machine specs that means you only have one eye looking at one machine - that's the Roland G70 to fill your needs. Every other machine/ keyboard will be a learning curve with new features that will frustrate you and educate you and life you higher ( in your creativity); it's up to you which way you want to go.

If you are lucky you might find a G70 in the same great condition and as well looked after as your keyboard; then you will be set. Hope you were able to have a backup of your play lists etc.

P.S. Hope they find the low life that took your baby.
