Who's gonna be the first to pair a BK-7m with the new Hammond SK1-73? I saw the ad in the latest (Feb) Keyboard magazine.
I just bought another G70, so I'm out for now. But I was looking into a BK-7m to go with my XK-1. If this new board is all it seems to be, maybe I'll need to have a fire sale this spring...

I have a BK7M paired up with the new Casio Privia 350. I wanted a real keyboard feel and size. For my arranger work I use very few organ sounds even though I've played lots and lots of organ over the years. I don't know if a 73 SK1 would be much of an advantage over the 61 key if your using it with the arranger.
The BK7M sounds great but I'm having some serious issues programming the styles. Two calls to Roland and not too much help. Mostly told its a design flaw or a problem the can't diagnosed over the phone. I'm making progress but very slowly. I afraid to even try to use the Casio's sounds along with the BK7M, that would be another bunch of issues. Just using the modules sounds for now.
For organ sounds and a all in one board I have the Roland VR700. Its working out fine wiht the Classic rock band I sit in with. It also allows me to use my bass pedals if I want to in the future. Two keyboards woud be better but thats the trade off.
Hoping to see a 76 key BK version in the future with a decent keyboard.

I like the keyboard...AND the female assistant!
