I would check out the keyboard thoroughly for problems since that box definitely took a few hits during shipping (enough to break off part of a piece of styrofoam and crack the other piece of styrofoam in half).

You can probably glue the broken pieces of styrofoam back together.

My G6 was shipped on May 1, from Sparks NV.
Almost 3,000 miles away!

I try to avoid shipping insruments such a distance.

Expect delivery on Friday. Hope its in one piece!

I'll have mine in 29 minutes...

It's here... haven't opened the box yet. I also got a Boss GT-10 pedal and have been playing around with it instead... Gonna dive into the G later tonight.. stay tuned for some first impressions...

BPM just got thier Frieght shipment today.
It left the warehouse a week ago...slow truck.

I should have my G7 by Thursday or Friday.
Colorado to Arizona.

Yipee!

I cancelled the ARX board orders. The 700GX Supernaturaual EP's did not sound good to me at all, except for the Dyno EP.
I can't see getting the board just for the Dyno, but I do like that sound on there.

The ARX-01 I should be able to live without for now.
ARX-03 BRASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So far I am just overwhelmed of the G. The sheer sound just from the headphones and the amount of pretty presets.. It's almost too much! Well back to the livingroom where I'm trying it out... catch you laters!

Has anyone in the UK got a delivery date for the G7, mines "the end of May". It's killing me.

[madAhorn]

I got it!

Awesome Dynamics!!!!! Pianos have about 50% more dynamics than the X. Wow!

I'll be playing catch-up for quite a while.
This is my first DAW since I bought my Ensoniq SD-1, in 1991,
so I am somewhat overwhelmed by the OS and features.

A lot of the sound are familiar. Out of context, the piano
sounds seem clunky/plunky but its too early to offer any well founded opinion.

I'm very psyched to learn all about it.
