Hi G-70 user,
Rolandmusik.de provides to morrow (4/15) the
new update 1.10. Impossible? No. -- really!!!

Do you know what are inside?

I just talked to Roland, I wanted to know why the US website has update 1.06, but the rest of the world is on the verge of 1.10?

He said that if your keyboard is purchased in the US, the only approved update is the 1.06, and if anything else is used it would void the warranty, the updates found on other Roland website outside the US are intended for the keyboards bought outside the US,

Does this sound wrong or does it make complete sense?

Dear Hanspeter;

Are you sure that its not a typo? Because how could roland go from Ver. 1.07 to 1.10 from v. 1.06?

Dear Frankieve;

That doesn't sound logical. Was this just a customer service rep, or were they from the technical department. One commonly receives those types of answers from customer service people who don't authorize anything that isn't in print.

PS ---Frankie don't you know that Roland makes a totally different operating system for Europe then for North America. Yes, that is because Europe has special G-70s so they need a special operating system.

I cannot understand how come Roland is goin to relase version 1.10 after a few days from the release of version 1.07? What happened to versions 1.08 and 1.09??????

Is it me, or does the Roland G70 Arranger group sound like the gang that couldn't shoot straight?

They just can't seem to get things right with this keyboard which is soooo frustrating since the feature set is so good and the potential terrific.

There is no sense. Music instruments are not the high volume products. So, made different products for different countries is not logical. All G-70 are build in Italy!!! Sure? It's just a marketing argument to say G70 for North America is different from another. A special OS software engineer for American machine!

There's nothing strange with "missing" updates.
Most likely there have been versions 1,07, 1,08 and 1,09 but not for publishing just for the software developers.
This happens all the time with other software as well.
If there is a version 1,10 and they say it is not for the america's it probably means that there might be some utilities that contain wrong information for the 110 volts versions. I am just guessing here, but this could be one of the possibilities.
Ofcourse it also could be that Roland usa doesn't know about it yet.
As long as they don't know about it yet, they won't guarantuee it.
Which makes sense.

I estimate though that Roland Benelux would say (If they did'nt know about it yet) "let me cheque which is the latest version and I call you back"
Which is a different approach between european way and american way.

Hi All,

The update 1.07 that circulated is not an official (not finished/not good enough) version. Tomorrow normaly the official update will be released. Also with corrected styles.

Greetings
