I set something in motion last night that I think I've never done before. I will say I'm excited, but the details will have to wait until all is said and done...

Hmmmm, wonder what you've got up your sleeve?

Cass you soild the G70 or the Hammond?

Took something that starts with a V and ends in an A?

Hi Taike!

So did I last night!

Hey Zuki! Ni hao?

What've you been up to?

Round and round she goes, where she stops nobody knows...

Well, she stopped in an unfortunate place. On Wednesday within a two-hour span I bought a S900 and sold my G70. Unfortunately, I woke up this morning to an email explaining that now my buyer cannot complete the sale. When I bought the S900 it was a move to lightn my load with the knowledge I might be the owner of two arrangers for a time. I was escited when all the cards seemed to fall into place. I set my mind on giving up the G70 and was happy with the decision. Now I find I will have it for a while now.

UNLESS someone here or later next week on eBay decides to buy it. I think I've priced it right, especially since it's in mint condition, comes with that great Gator case and has all its accessories. I'm even throwing in shipping and an FC7 pedal, together worth over $250. http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum29/HTML/002655.html

If you are interested in grabbing one of the remaining mint G70's out there at a reasonable price, email me with a good, reasonable offer. Othewise it goes up on eBay next week as listed.

Good luck Cass.....the S900 is a super arranger KB......hope you can get one asap. The G70 is a much better SMF player/editor/VH, vs the S900 but IMO the S900 sounds better using styles & sounds live. And transporting the S900 is a breeze due to its lightweight.

Donny - you pretty much summed up my feelings exactly. As for SMF play, I've used Y and R sounds forever and in the end the XG and GM sounds that I use most are pretty damn close, so I hope that will be a wash. And, I'm hoping to use more styles as I go further into thes NH avenue.

Now, will somebody please buy this beautiful G70 before I post it up on eBay.

I've sweetened the deal - $1999.00 and $100 or less for shipping. It's on eBay for that price or $2175 w/free shipping. Included in the sale:
G70 ver3, mint condition
all accessories, incl. clear music rack and AC
rare mint FC7 footpedal controller
PCMCIA/CF combo filled with songs and styles
Gator GK76 case w/wheels

Good luck Cass I hope you sell it soon and move on to new horizons musically. Except for Ketron Midjay....I wait for the day that someone makes an arranger that independently controlled simultaneous play modes eg: Styles, SMF, Mp3, SFX, Wav, & at least an 8"/10" tiltable bright display screen. Today's sounds & styles are more then good enough.....lets get the navigational aspect of playing up to professional needs standards.

Cass if you need help with your new S900 give me a shout.

Okay, Tone. We've got the skinny on cassp's escapade, now what have you been up to? Do tell. If it's along the lines of Taike's query, well discretion might be the order of the day.

FYI - the original buyer called me today and bought the G70. Thank God; I must be doing something right.

Cass, is this the G-70 Zuki had? It might be the one I bought. I did have a new set of pedals from George and a new, never used Gator case.


Russ

I'm pretty sure it's not, Russ. I bought this G70 from AJ, the FC-7 came from "hitman" Goran and the Gator case is mine own purchase.

Those FC-7 pedals are the best thing about the TOTL from Roland. I honestly don't know if I COULD play it without one!

My hands have got MUCH better things to do than push freakin' buttons all the time!

Sorry to see you go, cassp, but thanks for all your involvement in the Roland community while you had it. You were a pleasure to have around...

Unfortunately, no. Only the TOTL Roland's get the multi pedal input. If the E60 had one, I might have gone with one of those for a backup, being lighter and had speakers, too. But sadly, no luck. Had to get a G70

Captain Russ
Zuki traded that one to me for the PA800. I upgraded the OS to OS3 and love it.

Bernie

If anyone has personal contact with Ketron-AJ, please ask him to get hold of me tomorrow. I've tried emailing him with no reply. Thanks

He is usualy out of the country or traveling..Cass R U going Ketron now?
