this is one cool keyboard! after my 2nd trip to sam ash eliminated the pa80 from further consideration,I wandered over to the pro synth room and had a blast with this new roland keyboard. What cool sounds! These drums rock! also-compare the build quality for what you get in an arranger,from any company,in the $1800 range. We are getting ripped on arrangers!
Hey George-do you have the Fantom?
Is the va series anyting like this sound quality? My only exposure to a va7 is a piano salesman playing polkas-I never got to touch it! and then when He said "its only $5000"----I was laughing when I hit the front door!
