I just took a look back in our archives for that period. But I can't find a post I may have written about it. At that time I mostly participated in the RolandG70.com forum, which I think morphed into the Roland-arranger.com forum, both now sadly long

I had a BSOD (blue screen of death!) early on when I first got my G70 (still under warranty) and I hate to tell you this, but they swapped out the entire motherboard and I think power supply to fix it 😱 Now, it WAS under warranty and parts were s

¡Viva España! My entry into solo work came fairly late, I was in pro bands for decades before starting to play solos and duos. So my whole approach to playing revolves around how I'd play a song if I were still in a band. And that means needing tw

Thanks Diki for your inspirational advice. Keep it coming ! In terms of new keyboards the grass was always greener. From my electronic accordion days (before midi was invented) I think my first decent professional keyboard was a Roland E20. Th

If you have an iPad, Roland make a free editor app which allows you to fully edit all the Keyboard Parts. Including selecting MFX, editing MFX, EQ's etc. Now, while this won't work on the Song Parts, you might be able to record its output (use throu

Thank you Diki, let me try your first suggestion with the make up tools. The second one is a little complicated for me. I was hoping that there might be a "code" that would bring up the MFX at the beginning of the SMF, like some of those

I misunderstood your question. My response suggests how to apply MFX on the fly while playing live. Sorry for any confusion!
Roland Arranger Keyboard Forum
There's a couple of ways to do this. A lot depends on your MIDI and 16 Track Sequencer settings before you start to record. It's all a bit clunky, as the BK9 isn't really set up well to integrate with an external sequencer. But the EASIEST way to ad

My pleasure, Bobby. I too tended to hold onto an arranger through several model changes, preferring familiarity and mastery over a few minor additions each new model. My whole arranger path has been only three instruments . G1000, G70, BK9. Over 28

Maybe where you come from, Bill. Over here, we got acts that use audio, acts that use SMF's, acts that use styles, and there's ZERO difference in audience recognition. You know what the audience DOES listen to (and it’s going to hurt!)..? The sing

Lol, when I had my Mustang GT, I did have software for tuning it ;-) Sometimes it's good to be able to change things, even though it takes a bit of trial and error. I modified a factory style and got it 90% to where I wanted. But the bass would st

I hardly know anything about MFX, so hopefully Diki or someone else will chime in. However... if the MFX settings are stored with a "performance" (User Program), then there are ways to set up a foot pedal or push button that will call up a

I think weight became a non-factor with modern 76's. It's true that older 61's with speakers got up to about the limit that older players wanted to haul around. I can see some of the objections there kind of evaporating once these new 76's without sp

I recorded this MIDI file on the BK-9 (currently in MP3 format for your review). It has a drum track and an E Piano. Question: What is the code that will trigger the MFX for the E Piano within the MIDI track? Let me know if you have experience w
