Because they didn't say it?
You better be quiet about things you don't know.

OK. Time will tell who is right.
No need to argue here.

I would like to hear more about this "Guitar Mode" of the G-70 and how Roland is thinking to implement it in the future for other instruments as well. More specifically, is it a feature that can be used in real time, just like the Tyros 2 does with its multi-articulation or are we talking of something that can be applied only to spice up a pre-recorded sequence or midifile?

About Guitar mode you can find more info at http://www.selskabsmusikeren.dk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=241&Itemid=28 or http://www.rolandkeyboardclub.com/v/tips5.php or http://www.rolandkeyboardclub.com/v/prod_detail.php?id=218.

It's an easy and cool way to play guitar parts in realistic way.
You can use it for real time playing or for producing styles and songs.

I don't know how and when Roland will extend this technique to other instruments; I'm only guessing that they will do it since I see that they are working in this direction too.

Thanks! It remains to be seen how this works in practice; in other words, we need to listen to songs created with this new feature.

Sorry, I have no links for it (it seems that Roland didn't provide any demo).
Anyway G-70 User Club Denmark (http://www.selskabsmusikeren.dk/) users are very active and maybe something will appear there in the future.

My .02 cents........I tried to unload the PA50 'cause I'm not serious. But not being able to do so prompted me to explore and spend major time at it. I've put together a couple sets of songs and can say that this is truly an exciting instrument, one that I could play live. The realtime navigation is workable and for the money, Korg did a great job. Thanks to the majors who keep every budget in mind

yes I know the articulation on the Yamaha is not labeled as an effect but it still something that when the music is loud or playing it will be hard to hear, and every manufacturer has tried to make an acoustic instrument sound by multi sampling or velocity sample swithcing.

Maybe yamaha did it right but when it all said and done, it's a personal feel and the way you play it.

Allot of musicians here can make an older keyboard sound amazing and some of us, expecially me need alot of technology help

I agree. It's the emotional expression delivered thru the keyboard with our chops (hands) and voice (vocal cords) that moves the audience, and some musicians are able to accomplish this with an inexpensive spinet piano & cheap microphone. That said, if that same musician played a Steinway with the latest advanced condenser microphone, it would capture and elavate the performance even greater. This is WHY I'm so excited about the new Tyros2 "Super Articulation" voices. - Scott
