This may be the problem. As I understand it Roland does not have the ability to play the advanced chord voicings that Yamaha and Korg does. Rootless chords for example.

Scott,

Perhaps so. But the G70 is gone and my new setup is the S900/PA800 live. No way one board will do it and after trying all, the 800 was the best of the 2nd tier (for my needs). Should be a lot of fun. The 800 handles (my) chord changes perfectly.

Now I have direction again and it took a small amount of time to get there. Nothing wrong with that....

Stephen, Rikki, etc - here come some potential questions again I know you all have the patience with me - thanks.

Thanks,

zuki

So does Bernie have a G70 coming now?

& your gonna carry two KB's to all you NH gigs?

btw Zuki what did you think of the
G70 Vocal harmonizer?

I predict in a week or so you dump both the Pa800 & S900 for a Tyros 2

Donny,

Sorry, done with reviews. I seem to get myself in trouble. I'll leave that for others.

Excited about the 900/800 combination now.

zuki

Well, Zuki, I hope things have settled down and you can move onward and upward with your new instruments.

Good luck and have fun.

Ian

Will you be using a Midi hookup or separate rigs on your gigs....seems a bit much to me for 50+ 1 hr shows per month when travel & setup time is of the essence......
what do you expect to accomplish with this setup....I'd be interested to know.

Personally, I can't see Zuki getting a T2 unless it's to use with the PA-800...he'd be losing out on the Korg's great vocal harmonizer.

Ian

Zuki, I'll be happy to help when you have questions. Of course we all know that Rikki is the real expert with the PA800.

Why lug & setup all that gear to 1 hr Nursing home gigs just to breakdown ....run to another and setup all of it again a few times a day ...

I am concerned about the SETUP, not lugging stuff in and out. So what, you put an extra board on the cart - a lot of entertainers do that around here. It's not a big deal to me - I have the energy. Believe me, music is only a SMALL part of my day.

Here's what I plan to do, but don't know how:

1. Dbl stand the boards
2. Have the 800 as the default mic input.
3. Use the harmony feature while using the 800 AND while using the 900 style play.
4. Is it possible to play the 900 arranger and use the VH? (the 900 guitars pull off some terrific Everly Bros, 50s, etc medleys where I want harmony now).
5. I have Eon10/2 powered. I want to run both boards stereo.

That is what I'm attempting to accomplish, in addition to providing a more diverse act.

If it won't work and I do become put out, then Ian called it, I'll just get the T2 or T3, harmonizer and keep the S900 in the studio. I believe the 800 could never replace Yamaha, although I'll now kick it up a notch to find out.

Gotta have a plan - in business, plans are made and plans are changed - all the time.....all within a workable budget.
