It has an incredible sound quality overall with amazing capability and functionality... However my experience is that it is let down by poor navigation and controls - It is not the ideal keyboard to be tweaking and making changes on the fly...

In terms of setting up registrations - its very easy to do in the Performance List section. It make take you a few attempts at getting your head around it. Sadly the Scroll wheel is about to become your best friend smile There is a BK9 performance editor app which you can use on your Ipad (requires USB connection) and allows you to have a full touch screen graphical interface to manage and edit your performances on the BK9 which is an awesome aid for the BK9...

regarding the G70 and USB - Since it takes a compact flash card for memory storage, you can just buy a (very cheap) card and USB reader off ebay to get going. It has never ben an issue for me.

Best of luck!

Hi Nick,

Thank you for your reply. Yes I figured out how to use Performance List and now find it second nature, very nice indeed and I like it better than the EA7's version of UPG lists because on the EA7 it has banks of 1-1, 1-2 up until 1-9, then it goes into a second bank as 2-0, 2-1 etc etc and I don't like that, I want it in a complete list 1-999 which the BK9 does superbly.

I am aware of the iPad application and I need to get the correct cables first for the iPad before I can use it, but I have seen it in action already.

I don't think I will pursue a G70 (or E80) any longer, I actually have a second BK9, also in immaculate condition which will be more than enough!

Take Care,
Danny
