Hi all,

I am Interested in looking at the BK5 as a light-weight easy-to-take around Arranger.

I used to own a Roland GW-8 and wasnt very impressed with the acoustic sounds such as brass / sax / acoustic Guitar.

what sound engine does the BK5 use?? is it the actual E80 sound engine or is the the Roland Fantom G engine like the GW8??

Also - the fact that it is compatible with G70, E80 and other ROland keyboard style files - does this mean it is seamless playback? or do they need to be extensively modified?

Does the BK5 have the guitar mode or strumming guitars with fret slides / body taps etc that the G70 and E80 has?

does the BK 5 have the same keybed as any other Roland Keyboards / synths??

how easy is it to mute and un mute style parts in realtime while playing and controlling a style with the left hand?

What kind of sound editing level does it have?

Can drum kits be edited / customised?

Thanks!!

Nick
