Roland G70 still going strong - 09/25/16 04:01 AM

I bumped into this clip from a few months ago



Sadly its in French, but then who cares as its mostly music...

Every time i hear aG70 in capable hands it confirms that the instrument was way ahead of its time...

And a superb keybed, the best ever...

Weakest points, file management and no sample memmory... SRX cards are hard to come by these days...

Gamekiller, USB drivers are not compatible with latest mac osx nor with windows 10..

All these years later after it's release, The Roland G70 is still a very competent Arranger KB in so many ways, I enjoyed playing mine years ago,...it has many unique playing and editing features that to this day stood the test of time. That alone says alot. Most who knock it really don't understand it. Certain instruments that become classics come along once in a while and the G70 is definitely one of those. cool2
