TedS Member Registered: 04/28/06 Posts: 807 Loc: North Texas, USA	I think Facebook discussion groups are a poor substitute for moderated forums. YES it's easier to post pictures, FB "live," etc. But the search function really doesn't compare, so the same questions get asked again and again. I hope the old BBSs that preceded it never go away because there is so much knowledge here. What we're seeing is like the destruction of the ancient library at Alexandria!!

travlin'easy Senior Member Registered: 12/08/02 Posts: 15560 Loc: Forest Hill, MD USA	I was on Facebook for about a week at the request of my children. They said it made it easier to keep in touch. After a week, and all the BS that I saw, I called them on the telephone and said that I wanted something more personal and it was much easier to just come over for a visit and I would grill them a steak, or merely call me on the phone. They agreed, I purchased some fillet mignon's from Snake River Farms, Gold Grade Wagu, everyone loved them, and asked when I was having the next cookout. Amazing how wonderful it is to meet someone face to face. That's the same reason Carol and I went on all those road trips to the sunny south. Sure was fun meeting all the forum members along the way.

I'm not sorry that I have no complaints MEL Mel I can honestly say that the Pa1000 although a few disagree is for the price and bang for the buck one of the most quality feature & navigationally packed arranger keyboard on the market today for the player/singer hands down. Not to mention the fantastic SONGBOOK also. I had one last year besides having two Pa4x units also,... and since going thru almost all that is out there except the SD9 when I add all my needs up vs all the Pa1000 features the Pa1000 comes closest at this time. Now with all this time on my hands and an empty studio as a blank canvas & quarantine boredom I just might try one again we'll see..... Edited by Dnj (04/28/20 06:08 AM)

ZootAllures Member Registered: 08/31/08 Posts: 47 Loc: Upstate NY	I've pretty much been a "Korg" person when it came to arrangers, especially for my TOTL ( aside from my T2 which I still have. I usually worked more with mid range Yamaha arrangers, but I've been a Yamaha guy for workstations ( Motif, Motif Es, etc ). Well now, I have a Genos, which is awesome, and a PA700, which has pleasantly surprised me at how much is in there at that price range. My "workstation" is now a Korg virtual Wavestation. I'm really happy with all of it !

Chas I guess unlike the hoarding syndrome disease many people suffer from where people buy stuff they don't need and keep buying it with no rhyme or reason and end up with all this useless stuff all over the house doing nothing but gathering dust,..they instead buy the same units over and over again a few times and resell them until one day they learn what their real needs are and hopefully settle in on one piece of gear and sit down play it and enjoy it. Makes sense? PS the logos are included free also!! just sayin'... Oh boy I hear the bell ringing could that be UPS today is the day? chas Attachments Edited by Dnj (04/29/20 06:20 AM)

He's looking for the perfect balance and the only way to do that is to test them in multiple uses, venue's, etc. How else would you know the "Ruby Red Shoes" fit?

Its all good fun and helps relieve the anxiety and tension everyone feels. Of course, the beer and wine helps too!!!

zuki Senior Member Registered: 09/20/02 Posts: 4717	No Boredom around here. Plenty of landscaping, now that a few garden centers are open - gee thx, Gov. (Shuts down the state for another damn month - sickening). Also have my total gym and sauna done in basement now, so that takes up a couple hours. Night is usually when I do music, but to be honest, without any work in sight, I'm really getting discouraged. I don't know how others' without a 2nd (in my case 1st) income can stay optimistic. I have to hand it to UD and others that stay on course and keep a great attitude - impressive. _________________________ Live: Korg PA4X/EV Everse 8s/Senn 935/K&M stand Studio: Korg PA4X/Yamaha DGX670/Boss BR900CD/Tascam DP24SD/MTM Iloud/Sony C80/AGK 214/K&M stand

It is not absolutely essential that I work, but the money sure comes in handy when you want to buy stuff. At this stage when it gets to be not fun I won't work any more, but right now I miss it a lot. Things are looking up. The state says restaurants, in addition to being open for pickup and delivery can now seat people outside if they have patios, covered or not. I know my place will most likely make provisions for outside seating. _________________________ DonM
