If Roland doesn't have them in stock I could wait as long as 5 weeks for one to be shipped from Japan....YIKES!! Which will I keep which will I sell , will I keep both??? Stay tuned............they both have very strong points, I've always loved the T2, but 61 keys hurts. The superior Roland keybed and and 76 keys, and a great live sound!

OldNewb Member Registered: 01/19/04 Posts: 638 Loc: Shorewood Wi. USA	A PSR 2100 for a couple more weeks. Then the S-900. Unfortunately the S-900 will not get played to it's fullest for a few months due to my recent accident. (sigh) I've been putting off talking about it on the zone but.... Last week Monday, the 25th of June, as I was walking to my car in the morning to head to work, I tripped over a concrete block and fell while holding a ceramic coffee cup in my right hand. Cup shattered cutting my hand up pretty bad. The 29th I had hand surgery to repair some cut nerves and tendons. Index finger tendons, 2, cut 50% through and nerve also. Ring finger tendon and nerve cut 90% through. 3 months of PT and hand/arm in cast before I can play keys with it again. And another 9 months after that before I can expect to get feeling back in those two fingers. But...I am trying hard to keep spirits up and have the S-900 on order through musiciansbuy. I am 2nd on their list of pre-orders. Jim PS typing left-handed only is also a pain so I will not be contributing much, even after I receive the new board.

mikeathome1 Member Registered: 08/23/04 Posts: 1208 Loc: Syracuse NY	I'm interested in the s900 but I'll wait and see what the new owners have to say and to see if there is any kinks that need to be worked out. Right now I am using OMB and an edirol controller, I must say these new controllers have a better feel than in the past. I tried one a couple years ago and it felt like a toy now they say they are building them as instruments not computer peripherals, and I agree. But my feeling is with an s900 I can pack up the laptop, the mixer, the effects,the amp and speakers and the recorder. Of course I am talking about home use.

Bluezplayer Senior Member Registered: 11/10/00 Posts: 2195 Loc: Catskill Mountains, NY	Hi Keith B .. very similar to my setup, only exchange KN7000 with MZ2000 or PA80. I was thinking of letting 1 or 2 of these go myself ( not the T2 or MZ though ) but I kinda like each one for what it is. Maybe if the G70 or E80 really gets to me ( I need more time with them ).. I would possibly consider parting with my PA80 and / or Motif ES, but even those I still like a lot. The T2 is a keeper for many reasons, too many to list here. I also really have a soft spot for the MZ. It has sliders.. Mmmmmm....... Me like... sliders...lol. The preset styles in it pretty much range from kinda bad to absolutely awful, but it functions rather nicely on it's own as a synth, with beautiful Organ, Sax, and Rhodes sounds along with really nasty / crude / rough sounding electric guitars that only my best VSTi's can match, and a nice palette of rather ordinary synth patches that can be made very juicy and edgy with surprisngly deep but also very easy to access patch editing and effects. It also has sliders..Did I mention that I like sliders ? I love analog feeling stuff, even if it's connected to a digital machine.

N9FAL Member Registered: 12/26/03 Posts: 51 Loc: Florida, USA	I sold my kn7000 over a year ago. Bought the PA1XPRO, and most recently, the PA800. B-4 deciding on the PA800, I drove 120 miles to re-demo the G70 (due to the recent popularity and re-birth discussed here) and to try the new E-80 just to make sure. They were fine, but`came back to the 800 because it had that "Oh my God" sound. Mark

Giovanni Member Registered: 09/12/04 Posts: 489 Loc: Norwich Norfolk England	Interesting question !! With my DA200 concerto or Elkavox 83 midi accordions i have the following set ups (far too many ) Technics smac1200 ,kn7000 , gem XP expander and Tyros 2 . they are all good ! but i have to say for me I like the Technics brand best of all mainly for one reason :- The Gem and Yamaha are very poor in song specific styles !! ie glenn miller genre with all the correct intros/endings It's not only the miller styles it's song specific style complete across the spectrum . If you folks know where all the song specific styles are for Yamaha and Gem please let me know !!!as I've had not real luck searching for them !!! Technics did such a good job with the styles library via technote in the Uk . I'm sorry to say trying to convert successfully to the other two brand leaves a lot to be desired !! not good enough to gig !! Regards .............Giovanni _________________________ Giovanni

Diki Registered: 04/25/05 Posts: 14485 Loc: NW Florida	Still happy as a sand-boy with my G70, with only the Chord Sequencer omission as fly in the ointment, the sand in the vaseline... Until they bring a G-series out with this in it, I don't see the necessity of changing. I might add a MotifXS rack to the rig, or possibly a used rack K2500R, but I could gig for the rest of my life on the G70 if I HAD to! _________________________ An arranger is just a tool.

Believe it or not I'm starting to feel the same way about the SD1+.....the more I sink my teeth into it the more I enjoy playing it. Im not ruling out something else in the future Id be stupid to not leave an avenue open for progress...buy I am very content at the moment....it serves all my needs.

rikkisbears Senior Member Registered: 12/22/02 Posts: 6021 Loc: NSW,Australia	Hi, me too. ( except in my case it's a PSR1500 & a Ketron SD1+, not a T2). So many styles available for BIAB & the new Real Drums sound great. I'm slowly converting the BIAB songs to midifile format & using them in Powertracks 12 which now also plays the "Real Drums". I'll check out the Audya when it arrives. Had a quick look look at the Roland E80 & Korg PA800, but they didn't have enough Wow factor for me to to get hubby to part with his hard earned cash ( haa haa). He sent me off shopping & I came back empty handed. I must have been having a bad , bad day. If I decide to stick with BIAB, I may just get a decent synth workstation. best wishes Rikki [QUOTE]Originally posted by J.
