Bachus Senior Member Registered: 03/02/06 Posts: 7143	Originally Posted By DonM My theory is that Roland knows there is a lot more profit in synths than in arrangers. Inthink that Roland left the market above €2000 entirely..(except for home piano’s) I think they concentrate their products where the money is.. Build cheap, sell huge amounts and make a nice profit.. With time, i guess we will see an ea7 update.. _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

I do agree that the G70 was the best arranger from Roland but of course we're talking dinosaur here. I guess Roland has lost interest in making high-end keyboard products? Maybe they think they can't compete with the likes of Yamaha and Korg anymore. NAMM is right around the corner but so far there's no news of a high-end arranger from Roland that I'm aware of. They have a new 88 key GO:Piano but that's for beginners basically and of course it's not an arranger either. 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.

All the best, Mike I agree, if Roland would take the E-A7 and add supernatural sounds, a better screen and vocal harmony they would have a TOTL winner. But apparently the market is not there these days so something like an E-A7, with its world sounds (and lower price tag), can be sold anywhere with more mass appeal.
