How many people here have ever seen an SD7? For that matter, how many people here have ever seen a UFO? Or Sasquatch?

Seriously. Uncle Dave's efforts show the board can produce great results. But some features aren't fully described in the manual, and there are some things that I just have to try for myself. Way too expensive and bulky to just "take a chance."

The old brick-and-mortar retail model was dying even before coronavirus closed the stores. I'm tired of walking into Guitar Center and seeing "the world according to Yamaha." That's no way to promote innovation among instruments that are 85% software!

When this is all over, what I would like to see are "Factory Demo Days" in every part of the country, a couple of times a year. Manufacturers bring their latest wares, we try them, and then place our orders on the Internet (because most of us do that anyway!!) My $.02.
