Can't wait .... !

I'm afraid you have to, Crystal Ball or not....

But if I'm wrong regarding my feeling about Roland wave goodbye to top end arranger kb's,
and they surprise us by release a G-70 successor, it would be great!

Why not just wait and see shall we....
no rush there are so many great arranger KB's on the market already.

Fran, I think that's marvelous that the G-70 will last you far into the future, and you'd be content if it was the "last keyboard I would own."

I feel that way about my S910...although, I am glad that still further new features will be added in the next iteration of the series.

Right now, I'm seriously considering the Tyros4...t'would make a great "last keyboard" for me, if I decide to retire next year.

Maybe Roland will come back with guns blazing, and introduce a new TOTL arranger...it sure will be interesting.

Purely wishful thinking only!!

Roland will not be releasing anything in a fully featured top of the range arranger again in my view.

And I don't think there will be much at the bottom end of the arrangers either.

They need to get many other things in order before worrying about this tiny, TINY segment of their entire operations.

Let's see if I've got this straight... There seems to be the most interest in a new Roland from those who currently play something ELSE. And, exactly as they have for every single arranger Roland have made in the last few years, those same moist panties breathless anticipation clairvoyant pundits will find the EXACT same reasons to not buy it. IT AIN'T A YAMAHA...

Strange that those that DO play the G70 seem to be a pretty content bunch. But those that don't are always the ones the MOST interested in anything new... Maybe there's a lesson to be learned? The more you want a machine to do most of your work, the more important the machine is. The more you rely on what YOU play, then the only important thing the machine needs to do is give you great sounds...

Not so content that they NEED to post ENDLESSLY about wanting a 76'er by YAMAHA....yes, YAMAHA!!

I like Roland, but not enough to want one.

Ian

Good job too. Wouldn't want us BOTH to be disappointed that what we need is not important to either the company or it's users..!

BTW, all I have ever said is I want to ADD a Yamaha. No way is this puppy EVER going to be retired!

Of course that's what you said.

The G-70 does what you want...it's just so bloody heavy, and you're not gettin' any younger...additionally, your quest for a PSR 76'er appears to have reached an impasse.

Maybe Fran can advise you on how to recruit a bevy of young, strong, and (preferably) beauteous roadies...before you hurt yourself.

Plus, they say you're only as old as the woman you feel.

Ian

I found a couple "roadies" for Diki..Gary D doesn't need them anymore...
