Well, it does sound very serious, and I'm sure none of us here would want to see any keyboard manufacturer or factory be dissolved. It's the competition between them that provides we users with better products, and the loss of any one, or part of one, will surely affect things in a negative way.

You mean they are finally going to release a worthy G-70 successor?

You need to up your comprehension skills. This is NOT about Roland going into receivership. This is merely their Italian manufacturing plant (is this all of them or just the one plant?) going down, and in all likelihood production is going to be shifted to China.

And, if this happened to Yamaha's arranger plants in any non-Chinese location, I would be no more exulting this than I am Roland.

Perhaps you need to read what I post with a little more accuracy and a little less heat under the collar. I 'criticize' (you can substitute 'trash' if you want to invent an issue that doesn't exist, for whatever reasons you wish to become outraged) certain aspects of Yamaha's. I guess I need to start using larger fonts, bold and ALL FRIGGIN' CAPS to get some of you low attention span readers to notice where I praise OTHER elements of Yamaha arrangers.

Seems like you notice the least criticism and then the blood-flow shuts off above the neck!


Someone needs to get a life.

Your larger, bolder, CAP-ER eloquence speaks so well of you:
"I guess I need to start using larger fonts, bold and ALL FRIGGIN' CAPS to get some of you low attention span readers to notice where I praise OTHER elements of Yamaha arrangers."

Did you forget your meds?

So, unfortunately it's clear, the entire company Roland Europe is in liquidation. IMHO, This affects the BK-9 and BK-7m.

@brooster: I think your post is absolutely unacceptable for any internet forum. I hope an administrator will do something about it.

Before we get too nervous we might read the Notice of Dissolution on the Roland corporate web site:

Here is a short quote:

"After the dissolution and liquidation of subsidiary, the development and production will be transferred to the other locations within the Group and its businesses will be continued."

Very interesting! Yesterday I couldn't find anything official from Roland.com yet. So, at least the arranger line will obviously be continued. It would almost have been an act of desperation to stop the BK-9 so shortly after its introduction...
