In addition, Fran does not shift like the wind. He has been a pro for a long time, and for him, Roland fits the bill. We all remember when Roland was right up there with the best arrangers and other fine products. They may have shifted their focus from TOTL arrangers, but to me they are still quality. I owned the BK9 for a while, and found it a top quality machine, but didn't care for the two screen navigation and imbalanced volumes.

Thanks for the post, Fran.
