Never has use a Roland G70 before.
Any body that have play both, G70/BK7m. How they compare in sound quality?

Opinions please.

There is no question to me....the G70 is richer and more detailed in the samples used....Identical tones (same names)..There is a difference...

That being said, the BK series sounds great, but do not listen to folks that think it sounds better than Roland's flagship model...it doesn't..

I got a chance to hear both side by side...

The G70 still sounds better and more detailed...

You know what's pretty cool?

Even being able to compare entry/mid level arrangers to an initially much more expensive, but older instrument like the top of the range G-70, , within the same company.

It says a whole lot about how good the BK series sounds and how well the G-70 has aged.

From what I heard in the on line demos, the BK series is pretty darn close sonically, and I actually thought many of the styles sounded better and more detailed.

Now, if they could only come up with a direct replacement for the G-70.

Thanks to all for the input in this topic.

Totally understandable.

Please, as BK-5 doesn´t have a dedicated manual bass button, is there any alternative to play left hand bass, drums and right hand voice without kicking the backstyle parts, except drums?
Thanks!!
