Hi Everybody and thanks for your comments.
Midge and I are very new to web sites and really intended the site to be a place where folk could find references to anything and everything to do with Technics keyboards rather than a forum or chat area like Synthzone is...
In any event I think it takes a while to build something as sophisticated as this site (Synthzone)and build the marvellous support you all give it; but we will keep adding things to our site as time goes by and as someone said we are rather limited by what MSN allows us to do...
We'd much rather build our own from scratch but haven't got the faintest how to start although we have purchased the domain name Keyboard Capers.co.uk
It's back to school I guess!!!

Hi, I went to your website and the first thing I clicked on was Panel Memories. It came up wanting me to sign up for Microsoft Passport. I will NOT sign up for that. That plus the Product Activation is why I have not updated to Windows XP.

I know you have no say on that since this is Microsoft site and Microsoft is determined to take over the Internet. I get extremely aggravated at Bill Gates and his business practices. I have to use his operating system but I try to avoid everything else if possible.

Sorry to rant and rave like this, just a pet peeve of mine.

I do wish you luck on your site.

Well I've been called a lota things, so I guess I can add strange to my list Tony!
Hummmm--- KB? Yamaha!
Motorcycle? Harley!
I used the link & browsed a little. Looks like it could a great addition to the web!
I don't own a Technic's board but I may someday. I believe the more heads you can get together, that more good idea's are bound spring forth!
All the Best,
Nobby

Hello Nobby!
What I did not say was that the Yammie motorcycle I had threw me two weeks after purchase resulting in massive dental bills and scars that remain to this day! Of course it was the bikes fault and nothing whatever to do with me being half asleep on my way to work and not seeing the truck parked up in front of me. It certainly had nothing to do with me being seventeen and a bit stupid. The former has been corrected by time and the latter by bitter experience!! Never got on a bike again though. Four wheels for me, much safer for all concerned My new car has cruise control so I assume that when I am tired on the way to work in future I can sleep secure in the knowledge that the auto-pilot will take over

BUT back to keyboards ..... I was of course only jesting when I called yammie people strange To be honest I have always considered Technics to be far superior instruments UNTIL I played the 9000PRO. I love it. However I love my KN 6000 as I did my 5000 before it. I am seriously considering (when the 7000 & Tyros are launched) taking advantage of the price reductions and KEEPING the 6000 and buying a 9000PRO. That way I will get the best of both worlds!

I know that Scott Yee who has been a long time devoted technics fan purchased the PSR 2000 and was so impressed that he sold his KN 5000. When you can impress pro players of Scotts calibre then Yamaha MUST be doing something right in my opinion.

Now if Harley made K/B's I guess life would be perfect

BTW Nobby.....
Diddn't you own the korg i30 once over? I must have missed you getting a yammie...which did you go for? I remember you loved the i30 are you glad you changed? I owned the korg i40m (module) for a while but just could not get used to the OS. Hated the way that styles were loaded in. Very confusing I thought. (But then again it don't take much to confuse me!!)

I looked at the PA80 as well but was put off by the style thing (as above). I suppose that with a bit of perseverence I would have got used to it.

Still playing the Sax? My my all these questions........ I,m in danger of turning into Anne Robinson (I believe that the USA has had the recent if dubious pleasure of Ms Robinson )

Hi Gilbert,
I meant to vote on whether or not I was stupid, but my wife says not to bother, it's a forgone conclusion!! Cheers. walter.
