Hi all,
How many demosongs does the G-70 have? I've only heared a few, like six songs or so. Many thanks!

As far as I remember at least 20!

Hi,
OK, just wondered. I am choocing between the G-70 and the PA1XPro. I have not tried the G-70 yet, but the PA1X and I really liked its sounds.
I've read about the bugs that the G-70 had, and maybe I know which one to buy...

You know your own taste, just buy what you
like best. But do not believe the negative
messages about the G70. These messages are
written by persons that hate Roland, I do not
know why. Maybe they sell no Roland or they
hate other keyboardsellers.

Are you sure?

I don't like to think it. Because if negative messages were written by persons that hate or not sell a kb, all of us may say that positive messages about a kb (G-70 or other one) are written by persons that love it.

So, if there is no neutral people...

NOT SO!

I am a contributor who has made some negative comments on both the G-70 - which I am a potential customer for, and about the VA-76 - which I currently own.

These comments are based on my observations as a keyboard user who puts his money where his mouth is, and who has owned instruments from Yamaha, Korg, GEM, Technics & Roland at one time and another.

Each instrument tends to have it's own good & bad points, but some seem to be better overall than others. This is sometimes irrespective of price.

For example, in my opinion, the current Korg PA-50 seems a far better sounding, and better designed, machine, than the Roland VA7/76 at around twice the price. However, I bought the Roland because it has a particular operating mode that I particularly wanted, that none of the Korg range offers.

I am equally happy to acknowledge both the good & bad points of these, and other, instruments (& their manufacturers). Having said that, I do struggle a bit to find much positive to say about the VA-76 :-)

Hi all,
Many thanks for your comments!
Well, I'll go and look at the G-70 just to compare it with the PA1X. And yes, they are two different models, but just to see what it is.

Bevan,
Again you accuse my of 'Hating Roland'?
It seems YOU are hating me for some reason.

Please believe me : I love Roland-products as long as they do what I expect them to do.
I owned the U110, Canvas, VS880, VS1880 and there is nothing wrong with the brand Roland.

Who are you, telling the 'world' I did not own the G70 ?
Who are you, accusing me for lies?

Remember ALL members have rights to have opinions about products.... including you.
This is not a place to fight!

I've "known" Roel through this and previous forums for many years. His opinion is just that--an opinion, but believe me, if he says it, then it is what he truly believes. He has no agenda other than to try to help.
He has repeatedly said that the keyboard he purchased, then returned, may have been an early model that was not up to date with the latest software.

Hi Roel, I do not hate you, just the way you
write your messages. They are too destructive
and not good in a great forum like this.We all together here have a certain responsabi-
lity to keep it clean and fair.
We all know there are diffences between key-
boards and should not damage instruments
that just are introduced. Too hard shouting
is not good for your own throat. I do not on-
ly mean your messages about the G70, your be-
haviour against Ketron was not fair too.
