So you have two of them? How many weeks can you do without yours should an issue arise..?

Me, I couldn't go a day or two without it seriously affecting me. I had an issue with my G70 once. I had new parts in my town the next day, replaced out the boards and was back to work without a day missed.

Try calling Italy during one of their many holidays!

While things are great, of COURSE one is satisfied. After things go wrong, THEN tell me. Makes one think, doesn't it?!

And sorry, but 2X as much is no 'little more' in my book. Thing is, I don't NEED all that extra stuff. If I did, perhaps it would be a different issue. Got zero need for multiple mike pre's and inputs. Like most people, I have a mixer. Got WS's and VSTi's. Got an arranger that does tempo synced audio loops if I want them, got killer live sounding drums with none of the disadvantages an audio loop based arranger gives you. Got basically everything I already need, including a Chord Sequencer, which makes Ketron's 'Riff' feature virtually obsolete.

For well under HALF the price! In the US, these things are a smidge under $5000. That's serious money where I come from.
