It would sure be nice to see something new in the high-end department from Roland. I do agree that the G70 was the best arranger from Roland but of course we're talking dinosaur here. I guess Roland has lost interest in making high-end keyboard products? Maybe they think they can't compete with the likes of Yamaha and Korg anymore. NAMM is right around the corner but so far there's no news of a high-end arranger from Roland that I'm aware of. They have a new 88 key GO:Piano but that's for beginners basically and of course it's not an arranger either.
All the best,
Mike
I agree, if Roland would take the E-A7 and add supernatural sounds, a better screen and vocal harmony they would have a TOTL winner. But apparently the market is not there these days so something like an E-A7, with its world sounds (and lower price tag), can be sold anywhere with more mass appeal.
