Awesome choice I think. Congrats to you Fran. I've tried it and I do like it a lot. It's on the very short list of boards that interest me enough that I might want to consider buying, along with the V synth and Maybe just maybe the Fantom X. Suddenly, after seeming to lie doramnt for a few years, Roland appeard to be on the right track in a big way.

Good for you! Having a passion for the B3 voice, that no arranger KB seems to be able to emulate, I'm envious of your new aquisition. Keyboard mag gave it a solid thumbs up review some months ago. It seems to be a semi-arranger KB. Looking forward to your impressions.

Knowing you and Dave is like having a first cousin at Consumer Reports!

Looking forward to reading your report,

Nope. It has a basic drum machine in it, but the similarity stops there. It's not even a complete machine...no latin beats, Fran says.

Congrats Fran!!

I am still looking for a good working EM2000. If I don't find one in a few weeks, I may get back to you. You still have it right? Let me know if you get rid of it any time soon.
later

Fran, congratulations!!!

It's about time somebody got and reviewed this keyboard. I've been so curious about it for months and I've already spent this years, last years, and next years allocation of funds on keyboards. :-)

Best of luck
Al
