John, don's piss that money away on trivial things such as food, rent or clothing. Instead, do something constructive with it, such as spending it on good booze and loose women. wink

Merry Christmas, old friend,

Gary cool

John, glad to hear that you unloaded your PA4X and accessories.
Yes, I'm liking the EA7 everyday. It's my go to keyboard, very light, easy/simple to operate, punchy, clear sounds and lots of real time controls. Lots of usable styles also. I'd say it's a baby G70/E80 in a very light weight form. I don't miss much the vocal harmonizer (from other keyboards i had) anymore as I get used singing with just the EA7 built-in mic effects. Another feature I love is the Makeup Tools. I think this keyboard deserves more praise. I pm you already.

Jim I totally agree good luck with yours,......the Roland EA7 definitely slipped under the radar and can keep up with the big boys no problem sound & style wise, ....don't let the price fool you or think it's made for just the foreign market.....it certainly can do all you need once you dig in and learn its features...it's a very well thought out arranger KB & fun to play for sure.....

Merry Christmas to you & yours...

Prference, some prefer these very light keybeds... altough the ome i tested was not just very light, it also felt cluncky in some way... with lots of space to move left and right with your keys..

But then that could be because of it being a demo keybedoard.

My point is that it makes me feel like I’m missing something here. Roland E-A7 is spoken of like an affordable keyboard which offers something that other keyboards for this price don’t. So far I fail to see it. I don’t have a particular reason to be biased right now. I’ve enjoyed my PSR-S950 so far but I’m ready to move on. What if I’m to recommend a keyboard to someone? What if I’m to write an article about modern arrangers? Can I just say that tastes differ? Or it’s my duty to state that some products are overpriced?

It was mentioned here that E-A7 is like a smaller version of G70/V80. But those products were introduced about 10 years ago. I’m not that familiar with Korg’s arrangers (yet I try everything when I’m at a store), but I know that Yamaha has changed a lot within this term. So far E-A7 seems to me as an overpriced product and I don’t see a silver lining here. Maybe I should look harder.
