What is version 3? I went to rolands usa webpage and they take about v2. If there is a v3 why would it not be on thier website? What are the differences?

Thanks

The difference is that RolandUS do not care one tiny bit about arranger sales, arranger promotion, or arranger users!

And their sales, despite making some VERY good arrangers, probably reflects this neglect.

For shame, Roland, for shame...

Mine arrived this afternoon. It looks almost brand new - wow! Only one thing, one of the white drawbar caps is missing; can I order one from Roland? It's so nice to have a G70 again. I'm so happy!!!

Hi Cassp...I'm Happy for You my Friend!...As for any Roland Part call 323 890 3700. Ask for Parts...Roland US is located in California. From My Past dealings of Roland products Manufactured in Japan if it's not in stock it's about 4 weeks...Stocked parts are delivered very fast. I don't know about arrangers from Italy,etc. I'm guessing that slider knob is used on other products,not sure?...Best Wishes...Your E-60 comes tomorrow. Well Mine Now I guess! AND Again thanks again for EVERYTHING.

I don't think I've seen these on anything but G70 and E80...

Don't forget to specify the color!

If you can get them, if I were you, I'd get about 3 or 4 of each. No point HOPING they'll still be in stock if you lose one a year or two from now (they can't be all that expensive).

I remember buying from Roland a bag full of G1000 buttons assorted a while back for the KB. Took about a week or so to obtain.
Fran & I installed them with ease.

Hi Cass
Glad to see you back in Roland land. I downloaded V3 6 mos ago. Called Roland tech support, and they talked me right through it. Remember to clear your cache, or it will appear to full to accept it.

Congratulations, Cassp...it seems like Donny and Zuki and myself, you have found your Holy Grail.

Good to see you getting back into your music.
