I was looking to get better organ sounds and this keyboard was just what I was looking for. Great sound, awesome feel and the price can't be beat. Really easy to maneuver the options and settings too.

I like the extended 73-key playing space. This purchase is a replacement for equipment I lost in a house fire in 2018. This thing sounds awesome!!! Roland does a fantastic job this one!

Very good for your basic B3 sounds on stage (but not a Nord).
Electric pianos are awesome, as are most of the synth sounds and some of the pads and a few orchestral instruments. I really like the waterfall key action.
Pianos and other sounds are ... meh. Okay to back up a band at a local club, but nothing you'd want in a big performance.
There are some really cheap-sounding special effects, too.
But the VR730 has some significant shortcomings in modifying sounds real time, or editing sounds and patches ("Registrations") before the show. It's extremely limited for a keyboard in this price range.
There's no way to modify EQ of any sound, just a "Contour" knob on the front panel that is a mid scoop/boost. Onboard effects are equally limited in editing.

As a professional keyboardist sounds and lightness are important at a gig. The Roland Vr730 has an excellent combination of incredible organs. Pianos,synths and drums with great quick onboard effects and excelling split combinations. Over the last 40 years I have owned some high profile keys and this mighty board is bar none is the best small big sound keyboard in the market. Roland equals quality!

Well.... The FUNCTIONALITY is WEIRD at BEST .......
1. The Pedal interface when one uses MIDI IN Port with Pedals is HORRIBLE.... NO CONTROL OVER PEDAL SETTINGS ...VERY BAD DESIGN....
2. Layer CONTROL is HORRIBLE .....
3. Speed control is BAD when Layered.....
... and on and on .... its like roland did NOT care about the end product ..... they should review THEIR VK7.

First off, this thing weighs only 21lbs!! I’m coming from lugging around a 35lb Roland Juno DS88. As far as a keyboard for gigging musicians, this thing is dope! I play R&B, Soul and Gospel. It covers all those basses and more. The waterfall Keybed feels awesome. It has a straight forward layout that is easy to see on a dimly lit stage. The draw bars come in handy when playing organ. No regrets!!!!!
