Its beena while now

Sorry, nothing earthshaking to report. I am doggedly going through the features, and am liking the G-70 more all the time. This is not a board where one get read the quick start section and think they have mastered it. I am thoroughly convinced that the G-70 is grossly underrated by many that haven't really taken the time to learn it.

I find the manual to be excellent,and I like the OS better than Korg, but there is a lot there to learn.

Good morning -

Off to sell chemicals all day (music off day) - what a contrast in life

The PA800 is a marvel. It sounds terrific through the PA and is a lively board. The harmonizer adds a whole new dimension. The PADS are really USEFUL and I've found enough great styles to get me going and beyond. The speakers and weight are golden. The OS is easy enough and the touch screen is better than not. I'll take blue, 'cause I like to be different anyway.

I'll say it again - this board allows me to be creative, like never before.

Bernie and I are an example of a switch gone GOOD I'm happy for him.

Thanks for asking Donny.

I am receiving my PA800 this coming weekend and can't wait to see what it can do. I am a little sceptic of the OS. But, since I am familiar with the Korg Triton OS this shouldn't be that harsh.
I watched almost every single demo there is of the Pa800, and so far it is passing with flying colors.

As a 12 year Roland user, I will take my time with the PA800 and then post my likes/dislikes.

@ zuki,
I might need some chemicals to get me through the nights when the pa arrives!

Glad to hear glowing reports from
Happy players..........

Play Music every day

I have industrial strength chemicals, but not that kind you'd want

You'll love the 800...

Hi Zuki & Bernie,
it's great to hear that the swap has worked out so well for both of you.

I'm happy with my part of the transaction, too.
The SD-5 puts me in comfortable territory. I LOVE it when a plan comes together!

Correction,
it's great that the swap has worked out for all 3 of you, sorry, we forgot about Russ, If Russ hadn't offered to swap his G70 for Zuki's Sd5, the good ending may not have eventuated.
Funny how things work out for the best at times.
best wishes
Rikki

Yes - thanks Russ Are you gigging with the SD-5 yet?
