I am enjoying "our" EA7 a lot. Fran to DNJ to Hammer to me. Played it on the job last night. It's easy on my fingers and has styles that fit what I do very well. It lacks the Supernatural sounds of the BK9, but it is better in many other ways. Intro one is now great for break/fills on many styles. Look at 14:06--see how light a touch he's using. I have buttons programmed for [1] Rotor slow/fast [2] Portamento [3] MFX off/on [4] Upper Voice Change [5] Melody Intelligence [6] Arranger Hold [7] Lower Hold Pads set for drum riffs, applause, sound effects... I'm on my second bank of 100 User Performances setups. And 20 or so favorite sounds... What I'd like to see improved: Text file viewer, vocal harmony, larger number of Performances per Bank...always something... It's not for sale.  Don, the EA7 to use Donnie's words ...is amazing, You only have to give it a true ride to find this out.. When you do all that hard work.. you can send a copy of your data, performances , pads etc. to me.  BTW: it seems the folks that appreciate the EA7 the most.. are the folks that also have high end keyboards also, to compare.

Not sure you'd use my Performances but you are welcome to them. Earlier today I sent you an email.
