2784.0. "ROLAND RA90 REAL TIME ARRANGER" by HOO78C::GULICKX_B () Wed Dec 11 1991 10:30

HI,

I just would like to add a note on the Roland RA90 Real Time Arranger.
It's the follow-up of the RA50. The RA50 price is decreasing drastically.
Especially occasions are getting available below Hfl. 1000,- which is 
around $500. 

Before I write anything about the RA90, I wait till some one gets 
interested in this beast. (I do not know the RA50)

I just purchased one myself two weeks ago, still learning but if you 
want to know someting about it, just shoot......

My 'midi studio' consists of:

PF8 Roland digital piano,
Roland Alpha Juno 2
RA80 real time arranger
Keyboard spitter Akai
Atari Mega 2, with Steinberg 24 sw. (No hard disk)
Purchased recently a DEC PC 220, with DECjet 2000 printer.
(Need to learn if I should keep the atari dedicated for midi or change to
MS-DOS world. I don't know prices of interfaces and software very well)

Keep my attention more to DIXIE/SWING/BOSA NOVAs/Latin Jazz then POP.

In regards to popular music; there are already so many doing that stuff
that I felt - let's do something different, go for swing.

Bert.

    So, what does a RA buy you?  What are the gazintas and gazoutas?
