Hello,

If I have to choose between GW-7 and E-09, I will go for GW-7.
Basically, they have same sounds and styles (maybe E-09 has some more sound and style). But GW-7 has analog modify for editing sounds in real time. It also has USB for transfering data with PC (E-09 doesn't have).
GW-7 doesn't come with speaker, its weight is lighter (just 05 kg)
In addition, the appearance of GW-7 is much nicer than that of E-09.
It is my personal ideas (I'm owning GW-7 and I like it) :-D

I agree. Choose between the e09 and gw7. I played the e09 yesterday and liked. I also thought it looked very beautiful in black. E09 sounds and styles are identical to gw7 except that e09 has about 12 more sounds 20 more styles and 10 more drum kits. E09 is also the cheapest roland arranger. E09 navigation is superior to to gw7 because it has more dedicated buttons than gw7...with e09 u get dedicated category buttons for styles. Gw7 only has an awkward wheel. Also on the e09 the buttons light up like on the va7. Now the advantages of gw7 is the additional analogue fx edit knobs dbeam usb for adding more styles and a place to keep your favourite sounds. On e09 u can store one favourite sound per category. Gw7 is 5kg. E09 is 7.3kg

The difference between the EXR7 and EXR7S is the amount of flash memory internal. The S has about 4 times more than the noneS model.
