Well, got the PT-82 today along with the "world" Rompack; in fact, it was exactly the same ROMpack that I heard as a demo from
borrisinabox; not only that, but exactly the same sounding keyboard, as that was the PT-87. -- this brings my collection up to four casios and 11 ROMs.
As with the PT-87, the drums sound very unusual, not even drumbs but more like just a beat of some sort! -- I am surprised about that since the PT-50 has better quality drums, but I am not saying I don't like the "drums" on the PT-80 series; it's different, and I do like them for a change!
Again, as with the sK-8, it took me a while to figure out how to play the rOMs, and again, like the SK-8, we have to put the on/off switch down a few knotches and select from the numbered keys.
still haven't figured it all out yet.
I don't think this casio was used much, as the ROM door is still lovely and stiff! and the knobs are still pretty stiff! -- not sure how to work it all yet.
Work is still work; I'm not liking it more and more; I never know when someone is going to turn.
computer users was good last night; Mister AA (avid reader to this thing) and co did a great job on their presentation of the Apple and voiceover.
Next meeting is aGM where I'll be standing for secretary.
anyway, gotta go for Neighbours, BigBrother and food!
til next time, RdFreak
