Welcome back Tony. Sorry to hear you've been ill, but very happy it is going well now. Something such as that keeps all these petty keyboard "problems" in perspective.

Did you all get THAT one? ( It's a bit obscure !)

Tony,
I am glad that you are back and on the saddle again; I missed your sense of humour.
This Forum is really a family and a family needs all his members.

Tony: We all really have been wondering what happened to you. Really glad to see you back and to hear that you're well on the road to recovery.

You came back just in time to hear the latest annoucent that Technics will be releasing the KN7000 in Autumn 2002 ! http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum25/HTML/000373.html

It will be interesting to find out what new features will be implemented in the 7000, and if Technics will (hopefully) be INCLUDING the hard drive and hard drive management/backup software with the keyboard this time. If the hard drive isn't included, at least allow us the user to install an off the shelf hard drive, which is certainly gonna be MUCH cheaper than the highly inflated over-priced proprietory HD which must be used on the current KN6500/6000. I'm sure the KN7000 will be released (as usual) in your neck of the woods (the UK) well before it reaches the States, so we'll look forward to hearing your reports on it.

A painting in the attic?! If only I had a Van Gogh or Picasso up there . . . then I could easily afford to purchase: a Wersi Abacus, Technics KN7000, Yamaha PSR10000, GEM Genesis, plus every other arranger keyboards available out there too. Oh well, it was at least fun to dream about that possibility anyway.

Welcome back Tony, - Scott

Nope - you still haven't guessed the reference !

Oscar Wilde!

Best wishes Tony Pierce. PS I,m up the attic every day and I dont Get it Dave.!!!!!!!

I'm having problems with my oldest kid. He's nine, and he's been pretty pampered and spoiled by both sets of grandparents. And now it's starting to show. Plus it doesn't help that one set of grandparents interfere with our parenting. It also doesn't help that my husband is his step-dad...that adds a whole different set of problems that all tie together in the end.

Is that the writer, or the name of the movie? I forget - all I remember is that the painting in the attic got older and older, while the actual person did NOT age. Was it a Vincent Price movie?????

Hi all,
Thanks for your kind wishes.
The picture thing was a bit obscure now I come to think about it! It is from 'The picture of Dorian Gray' Indeed by Mr Wilde. As uncle Dave says he had a portrait in the attic that aged while he did not. Every time I see a photo of Scott Yee he seems to look younger

Scott, I am quite excited about the seemingly imminent arrival of the 7000! Having kept the 6000 and not upgraded to the 6500 I think I am in line for a change! Lets hope they have taken a leaf out of Yammies book and included a harmoniser that is useable this time! They probably will now that I took the plunge and bought a Digitech VR !! Can't wait to see a pic of one (The 7000 that is not the digitech )

ttfn
Tony
