According to insiders, Roland was meant to present a 16 part multi timbral arranger module at Musik Messe..

Interesting detail... it was supposed to have a mode comparable to ketrons launchpad.. and mostly be designed to be controlled from the New Fantom or an ipad screen... making the unit fairly compact.. in size comparable to the mc 101

Was posted in a facebookmgroup, where people where discussing the new fantom 1.6 patch. Which added Roland cloud support added super natural (e)piano’s to the fantom..

That would surprise me. I'm still in doubt if it was a mistake to sell the BK-7m, so I would be interested.

Well I had that doubt too after selling mine and found a mint one at a good price so I jumped at it. Glad I did. Its not the BK9 , no Supernatural sounds. but for what it does it sounds and works great.

I loved the BK7 when I had it except for all the various pieces of gear that were necessary. I always said that if they made a keyboard version of it, I'd buy it, and the EA7 is all that and more.
One thing I liked about the BK7 was that by using a controller keyboard I could call up functions that were not even possible to do directly from the module. For example, individual buttons for each intro and ending, and many more things.
I had 50 buttons, sliders, etc., programmed for it.
