And I'm sorry, but you just aren't looking at the big picture, Ian... Just because you might not actually USE all their features, there are EXTENSIVE features on a modern WS that require at least as much development as an arranger. And yes, I WAS raped when I bought my G70. And I am NOT happy about it. But they don't make a WS with the same keybed and ease of live use as my G70 (or I would have bought it and saved myself a fortune). Strange with such a great keyboard, Roland chose to use it on an arranger, and I believe, a controller.
Is it still being used on anything new, or has it gone the way of the TOTL/MOTL arrangers and the chord sequencer?
Sometimes I wonder what's behind Roland's thinking.
I've owned/demoed/and have done clinics on workstations, Diki, but they are just too tedious for me. I want to play, not work.
Give me a great arranger like an S910, and I'm very happy...both with it's performance, and the great price.
It's too bad about your unhappy experience from paying so much for the G70. At least it fits your needs, and you were lucky enough to get the second one at a better price.
Ian
