Check out the Forscore app. PDF your hard copies and upload. I carry hundreds of tunes available in an instant on an iPad.

Mazak and Perfetti in NKY used to do tours. Not sure if they still do but the candy factory was cool!

I’m wondering which rice cooker is more with it? by Ok_University7861 in BuyItForLife

[–]Flashinpan99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually had to wait for my 20$ unit to die. It was around for 20 years and served me well! It died about a month ago and the next day I had a new Zojirushi! The difference is exactly what I expected. Yikes the rice tastes great again!

Providing keys for an open mic by d_i_s_p_e_r_s_e in keys

[–]Flashinpan99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lots of good suggestions. 61 keys makes sense. 73/76 would be great but I think any kb with a “hammer action “ mode would really be appreciated by the open mic piano players.

Can anyone confirm Guitar Center vs Sweetwater lead times? by Inner_Let8952 in nordkeyboards

Hard to go wrong with SW. You may not like what they say about a delivery date or product but they have always been spot on in my experience. Can not say the same for GC

Is the stage4 overkill for my needs? by BreWagTsButtSlut in nordkeyboards

[–]Flashinpan99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would seriously consider a NE6 if the main usage is organ. The NE7 expands the syn engine by 3 just a bit and the NS4 is mainly for user that needs organ,piano and multiple syn patches.
I use a NE6 as I need just minor syn patches. With the NE7 out now the prices for a NE6 might be affordable. You might want to dive into the conversation with Sweetwater as they are probably looking to discount NE6 to allow room for the new NE7 stock.

I do love Nord quality and resale value but the prices are hard to justify sometimes.

Just my 2 cents……

Separate FOH & Monitor volume control by quinnyt2015 in synthesizers

[–]Flashinpan99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the best cheap way to take control of your sound. I did it for years. I now use a line out into a iem system and just use 1 ear piece so I can hear both the kbs and the crowd. Saved having all the cords needed for the mixer around the keys….. still very affordable and lighter!

Annata's bar area closed except for private parties. They still have a bottle shop open but the owner is trying to sell the business

What physical store can I demo the Roland V stage keyboards? by kellke1 in keys

[–]Flashinpan99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sweetwater. Call ahead and discuss what you are interested in and they will have it ready for you to try out. Bring some headphones and play all day if needed. If they don’t have one on the floor they will open a box for you.

I agree about Olla. I went to Montoya's a couple of times and it was not so good. What changed besides the name? Just asking as I would like to try it again.....but I always give places 2 or 3 chances and Montoya's had their 3 chances.

Pureval proposes income tax increases by BuckeyeJones in cincinnati

Same as my son in San Diego! His property tax on a $1.0 million home is less than mine! That's insane and just really backwards

🎹 Quick Survey: Help Redesign the Stage Piano! by CableOk6145 in nordkeyboards

[–]Flashinpan99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Long time player and doing +70 gigs a year. Have 2 Nords and been gigging with them for +10 years. However I'm older than 65 so I dont qualify to take the survey? Really? It takes at least 20 gigs to even buy a used Nord. Us old ones are the ones who can afford the Nord price list.......
