Hi Guillermo,

Both Dennis Awe and Gene Roberson are primarily organist, so almost all of their sequencing has been done on the organ. Since Technics closed their organ R and D department last year and terminated their contracts with all their organ artist, it’s clear that they are going out of the organ business even though they continue to produce the G100 and the F100 organs. Dennis is now employed by the Lowrey organ people, a company he played for many years ago. He is just a wonderful fellow and he seems to be happy with his new responsibilities.

Gene Roberson played a concert on the new Hammond organ this year. After just a few hours rehearsal he gave a performance of a lifetime at this year’s HOF. Gene is doing some fine sequencing on his KN6000. And, just like the rest of us having some problems with the instrument. We all hope the factory will resolve these problems soon, since the instrument has been on the market for almost a year now.

As for why Technics has no presence at this outstanding music festival. The question has to be addressed Mr. Dan Slick, Technics U.S.A.

A loyal Technics player,

Frank Bez
