I think the rumors are true, Roland slowly moving on away from the keyboard market..... Atleast away from Arrangers and Workstations... Sad, sad, sad.... _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

I'll see how I go with your link. _________________________ best wishes Rikki 🧸 Korg PA5X 88 note SX900 Band in a Box 2022

Originally Posted By: arranger_yes_pc_no Originally Posted By: doc-z I own RealStrat and RealGuitar, while they sound great, and work good in a mix - they do not sound like a real guitarist playing a real guitar another thing you might want to try, is Band in a Box. It's Realtracks sounds like real performances (well, they are), and when it works well, the program is impressive. I have had many problems with it and in the end switched back to hardware arrangers, as I was wasting too much time. Even when it works well, the sheer amount of options are confusing. There is so much stuff for it that you'll find yourself sitting there for weeks. Also, in my experience it doesn't recognizes chords as well as the hardware arrangers. But for these Realtracks, it's hard to beat. _________________________ best wishes Rikki 🧸 Korg PA5X 88 note SX900 Band in a Box 2022

keybplayer Senior Member Registered: 10/27/03 Posts: 2417 Loc: CA	Yes my friends this is the all new Roland arranger module. Here is the link: http://www.rolandconnect.com/product.php?p=bk-7m PS: Somebody might have already posted the same link. I haven't read all the posts in this thread so this might be old hat. Anyway, I'm quite thrilled about this new arranger module from Roland. There are 400 high quality Styles plus the ability to play and manipulate audio files. 128 note polyphony as well. All the best, Mike _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Mackie HR824 MKII Studio Monitors, Mackie 1202 VLZ Pro Mixer (made in USA), Cakewalk Sonar Platinum, Shure SM58 vocal mic.

doc-z Member Registered: 08/10/05 Posts: 436 Loc: Norway	Anyone been able to dig up more demos of this thing? Audio or video? I talked to my dealer here in Norway, MSRP will be NOK 8030,- and a retail price of NOK 7650,- That means it will be NOK 830,- more expensive than the GW-8 and NOK 280,- cheaper than the Prelude. In my opinion that is a weird place to be for this product. DocZ
