[CAUT] lab woes

[Greg Granoff]

Fred,
Thanks for your input.  I'd be very interested in your group piano teacher's
comments about the Roland lab (one of the makers we're looking at).  Is it
possible you could put me in touch with your group piano teacher off list?
I need some particulars about the equipment itself, since there is a dealer
here who is chomping at the proverbial bit to sell us a Roland setup.

Thanks much!
Greg
