I have indeed read the manual before buying the G70.

I was satisfied with the list of the parameters that the OTSes memorize (and recall). I am not satisfied with the fact that during recall of the OTS, an extraneous action of recalling additional, non-recorded parameter is occurring.

If you had a situation that every time you pressed a middle C it had also played an E and a G, you would surely consider it a problem (though perhaps if you had only played Cmaj chords, it would be a "feature"). I am surprised why some people are trying to excuse similar misbehavior of the OTS. The whole purpose of the "memory" is to recall what was memorized. If it recalls something other than it had memorized, then it is a problem.

This operation is not according to doucmentation in the manual, but even if it were, IMO it would still need to be changed.

I understand that in a complex system like the G70 the initial software release may have a number of problems with improperly working or illogically designed functions. The proper way to go about this is to fix these problem. which is what i hope Roland will do.

AJ, as I said before, this may not be an issue to some people, and I am glad it is not for you (though I suggest you try exercising the OTSes, and playing the G70 in the "Intelligent" mode before purchasing one). I often play riffs with my left hand, and for that the single finger chord setting is horrible.

Regards,
Alex
